Comparing Manchester’s MetO forecast for tomorrow to Sheffield, Leeds and Liverpool makes me a right grump.
Damn, damn that southeasterly wind snow shadow effect. An absolute pain in the arse. Heavy snow in all those other cities, but all Manc will no doubt get is a few flakes of sleet in the wind.
Don't get too despondent. I think Manchester will get more than Liverpool. And, as the ppn is more frontal, I wouldn't worry that much about direction. Can't see it being a memorable event in either city, though. I reckon 1-3cm Liverpool; 2-5cm Manchester.
Different story for Leeds and, especially, Sheffield though. And indeed for places like Oldham, Bolton, Huddersfield, Halifax, etc.
Altitude a huge factor. The curse of our climate (oh, how we were spoilt in that 09-13 period, where the air aloft always seemed cold enough 😥)
