I have seen the forcast for tonight and it doesnt look good, snow arriving around tea time and lasting for a few hours.

said on Sky that it is expected to snow tonight in the Manchester area

Accy's game against Burton has been called off tonight because of a frozen pitch. Guess the patio heaters didn't work.

From the Shakers MB at 3pm this afternoon:

Been down to clear snow and help the groundstaff out, most of the pitch was fine and snow free. It's the area in front of the south stand that needed clearing, however ground sheets did their job and the pitch looked playable to me, although Mr Curtis said he's seen them go either way. Hope Mr Referee isn't a Southern Jessie

Its Stuart Attwell so anything is possible"

Maybe not enough people in Accrington have patios to heat. They have back yards don't they !

Judging by the piece of footage on the north west news that would appear to be the case, they only showed one.

Snowing heavily in Wigan now...

it's clear here in Manchester at the mo.

Dont worry it'll get to you very soon

Snowing and its sticking at the moment in Blackburn hope a decision is made soon

Still clear in Manchester but I'll be travelling to Bury with one eye on the sky. Figuratively speaking of course, it would be unwise to do that whilst driving.
