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.
