Although on this morning's BBC news, they showed the whole of the north west under a blanket of snow, at a time they showed as being 3 pm this afternoon, they didn't actually say it would snow here.

They did say it would snow in the south east, later in the evening, and they could get 5-10 cms.

Although it'll remain cold, the north west is forecast to have rain tomorrow.

Currently very icy here. With the rain, and slight sleet, freezing on contact.

Does amuse me, the giddy state the news programmes get in every year.

It's winter. It's cold. It some times snow.

Teddy bears go plop-plop in the woods.

Big deal.
