Had lying snow all day. About 2cm at 7.30a.m Rose to 5 and back to a few after the additional snow showers and sun thaw. Pic from this afternoon. Snowing again now
Hardly the stuff of legend but delighted as first lying snow of the winter - Brigg is 4m ASL so any snow from the west is generally a non starter, Usually do OK like today from the East.
Hoping everyone gets something tonight

Positive start to the day.
Not expected anything meaningful till later Sunday but getting occasional light graupel showers.
And that helps brake the monotony of lockdown

I have been optimistic all week but the stars appear to be aligning in the wrong places: heavier rain than forecast, followed by being stuck in the dry part as the low moves away Sunday, If the streamer is too far north or south.......................
So got to hope that this is like the part of a film where everything has gone wrong for the central characters and then just when all looks lost they recover and win the day.

The weight of snow was so great in Scunthorpe in 2010 that the roof of the newly opened Tesco superstore collapsed:

Just catching up with all today's developments so firstly poped into the model thread to discover:
'My main concern is the latest Metoffice weekend forecast which is showing potential rain for the far southeast for Sunday'.
So having given up I've come back here to read some great posts and analysis
Met office have rain for Brigg Saturday, nothing Sunday,some light snow showers Monday.
But as other posters have said, these easterlies do deliver for this area and I expect frequent snow showers Sunday afternoon onwards and plenty of snowmen in the garden by Wedensday

Maybe not.
But everyone who hasn't seen snow this winter does.
Didn't realise north lincolnshire and most of low lying east yorks was in the south east. Might explain my geography A level result!

Only post every three years or so but read almost daily the model output thread.
So firstly many thanks to all the posters.
Your posts have helped to feel part of a warm community during lockdown.
Now the moan.
Still no lying snow this winter - and I'm 'up north' given The KLF definition of the north.
Couldn't believe to get nothing off the east/north eastely flow the other couple of weeks. That's always been a banker.
So feeling jealous today, especially with many saying it's good the south finally got some snow. Some of us up north haven't seen any either
Come on that ECM 144 chart.

It's never too wet to stick! Temperatures will drop rapidly after 12am Saturday morning so any snow after 1am will stick nicely
Thank you

OK stupid question but one I'd like to ask.....
Friday will be wet with rain to start with and the ground is quite waterlogged already.
Rain will turn to snow Saturday.
But will it be too wet for it to stick?

The drifting snow blowing around in the wind has caused chaos on many roads in North Lincs, many roads are closed including the A15 all the way from Lincoln to Scunthorpe - crazy stuff this drifting lark! Just about every school and college in Lincolnshire seems to be shut again today.
Even in 2010 I don't think the A15 was closed specifically due to snow!!!

Great in Brigg, keep thinking that's it and then another 5 mins blizzard arrives. Marvelous.

Thoughts on snow potential for tonight for Scunny?
Can't see anything like we've had falling although the north sea is still looking active.
No other suprises out off the coast of Denmark are there?
Heavy snow/blizzard in Brigg should be on its way any time now :-)

My weather emotions today remind me of lpool in the European cup final vs AC Milan. All hope before the match and then gutted by half time.
And then......miracles can happen, come on Beast from The East!!!

Yes slightly downbeat. The main action tomorrow looks like missing my location. However Weds could yet deliver............

Lovely surprise this morning, a good cm fallen in Brigg

Just enough to cover the cars in Brigg
