Apparently there was a great show of them last night over the region, radio Manchester was all over it with tales from people who saw it etc. https://apple.news/AGwvVfQUMSuiVnrAbSlBxlg Edited February 27, 2023 by fatolive Link Quote

gonzo Posted March 8, 2023 Author Posted March 8, 2023 Well that article was bang on @Tonge moor green jacket Really felt it today. Proper dense cold. Quote
Not in Crawley Posted March 8, 2023 Posted March 8, 2023 Even a smattering of snow here, surprised it didn't make the national news Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 Not as cold today (the feel certainly) and the white stuff not sticking, despite plenty of it. Still a bit of horizontal easterly on the top lodge, but not as sharp as yesterday. The flakes in the face make things awkward though. Quote

globaldiver Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 Nowhere near as bad as we were lead to believe Quote
bolton_blondie Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 Sure it's colder in my house than it is outside, might treat the kids to some warmth this evening and put the heating on. Lucky buggers Quote
gonzo Posted March 9, 2023 Author Posted March 9, 2023 Its certainly a battle out here. Think its made it worse the fact its been sound the past couple of weeks and spring was in sight. Feels like we back in darkest December. Quote

Wasn't predicted to be quite so bad here- even the snow maps were suggesting it to be hit and miss. My phone's weather feed suddenly became "worse" in its prediction last night, and it was right in the sense we've had some snow, but nothing on the ground at all.. Quote
BobyBrno Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 53 minutes ago, globaldiver said: Nowhere near as bad as we were lead to believe Nope. Ventured out onto the hills. Cold wind was worse. Sheltering in Rivington Brewery now. Quote

Wanderlust Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 Snowing in Norfolk but it's that wet stuff that doesn't stick. Cold and miserable so I'm off to the gym. Quote
Traf Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 Absolutely shitloads of snow here and it's unlikely the roads will be passable for much longer. Already two serious accidents on our road today. Had to skirt around a car on its roof earlier. Quote

May be clear here, but not elsewhere. Quote
