Temperature now dropping nicely as the sun sets, 1.5C. Metoffice going for a low of -7C in the region overnight. 

Can believe that. Already -4 here. 

[Chris.R]

Just gone below freezing here.

GFS and ECM have some interest Friday night

[Dark Horse]

I'm impressed by this flat lining of the mean average, reminds me of back in 2010. Absolutely bullish about cold staying with us until about the 17th at the least. Be interesting to see the CET once we get to that point as we're going to struggle to get much above zero every day until then, if at all on some days. Wowza.

Funny to think that under 5 months ago you were the hottest place on the hottest day ever in NW England. Seems a long way away now.

Yes, though I do think we squeeze the title given the proximity to the Midlands basically, we are just North West considering how big the region is, but records are records. 

That said weather wise this year has been interesting. We had the relentless rains of November and now it properly feels like Winter right on cue. 

Still nice to know we can muster up these cold spells despite a record summer.

-1.5°C on car whilst I'm waiting in Glossop for my sons trampolining to finish.

Saw on bbc nw tonight had Manchester-5c tonight, might sneak -6/-8c in Peak District/Glossop/Buxton then I guess… cold without snow cover… 

[Dan B]

Back garden is absolutely solid; greenhouse door is frozen shut!

 

 

[Frigid]

Manchester Airport already at -3C at 18:50. 12hrs left of cooling, could nudge -6/7

[Slidergate '17]

-2 already! Impressive

Mod thread winds me up, people moaning that they see no precipitation on the way. Must have been frozen solid for 3 weeks before I saw a flake in 2010 and then it bucketed it down and also stayed. No idea why anyone would want a battleground scenario where the snow has left the next day and I’m certainly yet to see one that actually delivers for the northwest!

Yeah does my head in too, also hearing about ‘the snow starved south’ also boils my jaffa cakes

Rain

[raul_sbd]

@MattH and @Kasim Awan what are our options as things stand for bit of a dusting for our region or is it still the case of now casting?

[Frigid]

Clear skies and slack winds. Only thing missing is snow cover to develop a 2010 style frost. I wonder if we'll see another -10c or lower during this spell. 

[Weather-history]

-4.4°C 

 

[Chris.R]

Still hovering around freezing  here thanks to the wind direction here. Will stay like that until after midnight. Just a few miles further inland it will be a different story.

[Scuba steve]

-2.4 c under a fat moon 

[Weather-history]

ECM 12z 2m Manchester ensembles looks cold at least until a week on Sunday when uncertainty increases

[SnowThunder]

0.1c 5 minutes walk from the beach, so I imagine we'll definitely get below 0 in the next few hours
