Snow - will it or won't it?
Well they were talking snow on the radio this morning, they say it could be on Thursday or Friday, what do you think.
Its bad enough having to defrost the car every morning , never mind slipping and sliding everywhere. Give me the wind and rain anyday. |

Re: Snow - will it or won't it?
The Met Office now have a severe weather warning out for the whole country covering Thursday Friday and Saturday.
Snow, Hail, Sleet and Strong Northerly Winds. Windchill - minus 10C  Happily, because this is coming in from the North we should be spared the worst here in our cosy little bit of East Lancs, the lovely Pennines will shelter us from the worst of it.

Re: Snow - will it or won't it?
I'd much rather have snow than frost, as it's not as slippy. Though I'm not keen on snow when it turns to slush. My 7year old loves both, it took us an extra 10 minutes to walk to school yesterday 'cos he was purposely sliding all the way. He's not daft though he wouldn't let go of my hand, I'm sure it grew a couple of inches with all the dragging on it.

Re: Snow - will it or won't it?
So the met say possible snow and a possible -10 sounds like a fun weekend ahead.
 Sledge is ready but the chance of it lying here are pretty slim.

Re: Snow - will it or won't it?
According to Metcheck.com, the Snow will arrive in Lancashire at around 3pm on Thursday afternoon and stay with us till around midnight. The actual window of opportunity is from 9am Thursday to 3pm Friday, but it is the 3pm to Midnight slot that is forecast with 100% probability. Below 200Metres it should fall as sleet.
To put that into some sort of perspective; The Griffin at Huncoat stands at a couple of metres short of 200 and the coppice is around the 245Metre mark. So... Wet, Windy, Slushy and pretty damn cold! I wouldn't get the bobsleigh out just yet, unless you live at Green Haworth or the Isle of Skye. But it might be a good idea to make sure that you have got plenty of antifreeze for the car. It will be a pretty nasty ride home from work on Thursday.
