Hope the match survives this weekends weather.

not scare mongering here but my mates dad works at the met office and my mate lives in sheffield and was driving over for the match but his dad has told him not to travel he said by 5pm tomoz all trans pennine routes will be very badly effected by snow and will probably end up closed.

Just making everyone aware cos it might look ok when traveling to the match but you will struggle to get back.

He said snow will start fallling in manchester between 12 and 2pm and last around 10 to 12 hours and its going to head south and east so even midlanders and southerns need to be aware.

if its any consilation he also predicts city will win the league.

Take care if you still decide to travel.


Hi

Posted the above earlier.

My mate just text me saying his dad has phoned again and met office feel manchester will have 10 to 15cm of snow on ground by 9pm tomoz thats around the ground with some areas to the south and east of the ground maybe getting 20cm+

He also said they are in contact with all prem clubs as we speak advising on situation but obviously met dont make decision just give police and club information but he did say he feels if it does pan out how they think it will get called off.

Not coming down for this one as I got job for the day, but tbh as much as I would rather be at the game, it could be a blessing in disguise as when theres snow there's always problems with trains

If there is 10-15 cm of snow tomorow in Manchester I will go to city naked.

Looks and sounds highly unlikely to me, but appreciate the reports

This is a break down in plain english of what the latest data is suggesting.

Make you own minds up but I wouldnt fancy being stood naked in 10-15cm of snow lol

Hi guys, my first post on here. great forum btw.

Manchester City have a home game tomorrow scheduled for 5.30, can anybody tell me the chances of it being called off due to the snow?

Hi mate, welcome to Netweather :)

I think theres a pretty high chance it will be called off with Manchester being in a prime location for some heavy snowfall during Saturday.
