snow clouds just coming over where we live now.

It's gone very dark over Manchester (and so presumably Salford, my window is pointing in the wrong direction!). No sign of any snow yet, but it wouldn't surprise me to see something falling before the inspection at 5. No idea what the temperature is, but if the terraces start getting slippery then we're in trouble.

It's snowing quite heavy in Billinge and it's sticking.

Yeah...might struggle to get there, even if the game does go ahead.
They shouldn't cancel it just for snow - we've had games go ahead in much worse conditions in the days of "winter rugby" - but if it freezes later then I guess it'll be off.

Snowing in Manchester now. Hard to tell if it's sticking, I can only really see the motorway outside my office window and it's getting dark...

Seems to be sticking in Castlefield, I doubt the match will be on.

Having said that, its stopping a bit now...

Hearing from people living north of here that conditions are much worse, it might be tough for people to get to the ground tonight anyway (no probs on the tram for me though )

Having said that, its bombing it down now...
