Snap comes (or at least used to) in a snap-tin (a tin which had clasps which made a snap noise), which is the etymology my dad gave me. My very southern husband now uses the term :)
I never pronounced it 'watter', but the rest of my family did/does.
I don't think growlers made it to Barnsley under that name, but I shall ask abart.
