I think your clutching at straws now snowstorm1, we've had our lot, if we get anything now it will be sleet at best

this is freezing rain

thats the way i'm looking at it now gaz, as far as I'm concerned this current cold spell for us is on its last legs, so if I'm wrong i wont be dissapointed

if it was 10c paul i'd be crying in my beer now watching my house floating down the street lol, now that would be some thaw. the temp here is 1 Degree

ok here's a question, we have just over a foot of snow lying on the ground in places, if temps remained around the 3/4 degree mark all week here in Teesside, how much of the snow would dissapear?

currently 1oC here.

yes I also agree, its got a little milder here as the day as gone on ( Teesside ) other posters in the yorkshire/pennines thread who are on the coast are saying its warming up there too, not to sure if I will see snow like we've had the past two days again for a while, roll on the next spell of cold weather

I must admit i'm alittle worried about those temps the bbc have forecasted for my area all next week, a week of 4 degrees will damage our snowfall and were down for light rain on wednesday.

alza thats my take on things now, I seen the best snowfall since 1992 ( if not better ) there are a few experienced forecasters in the general discussion thread saying the north east will get another pasting next week, personally I cannot see it myself now, I think we've had our lot, its time to enjoy it while its here. Just for the record on January the 2nd we got heavy snow and not sleet/wet snow so anything is possible when our area is forecast for sleet.

lets hope it stays away during the daylight hours alza, Plus the snow cover will help keep the temps down, its clear here now and The snow is starting to sparkle so the temp must be slipping away despite the wind coming in from the coast, if it stays clear I think we can forget about seeing temps above 0, which is what we want.

Hi guys, very little snow today, just the odd shower lasting a few minutes, the wind has picked up alot and is dragging the temp up with it, far less cold than its been the last two days, I think we have seen our lot for the current spell now, lets just see how long this snow cover will last's. I also seen the sky weather report and they had our part of the north east been 4 degrees tomorow and monday, well through experience of the weather round my way, if thats the case then we will deffo get rain if there is any ppn about.

I am right in thinking most of the northern hemisphere is under snow at the moment, like you say the usa have been battered, uk and europe have snow cover and have been battered and china has also been beltered with snow this winter, is there a pattern happening here are the so called world powers keeping something hush hush lol. OK I'VE BEEN WATCHING TO MANY FILMS but you've got to admit it a pretty good start to winter

thats what I am hoping for Hagler, I'm hoping a quick reload after a slight mild period ( if you can call 3 degrees a mild period ) which may come into play sometime soon.

lets hope not peter plus if we have this much snow on the ground wont that drop the temp a degree or 2?

was watching look north tonight they reckon, monday top temp will be 3 degrees along with Tuesday except as Tuesday moves on drifting snow with strong winds will blow in and continue into wednesday, may not be over for a while yet?

cheers MCT, I can confirm its still snowing here, lighter than it was but its been snowing for 6 hours now.

Hi MCT, I'm going to sound greedy here but anymore spells due tonight for Teesside tonight?

I'm no expert but I have a gut feeling some type of snow event on a massive scale may kick off come febuary, this is the best start to a winter I have ever seen. Anyway even if we dont see another drop of snow this winter i'll be glad I witnessed the events of the past couple of days roll on feb/march

I think its only fair we share some of this with our fellows friends up the coast I think its only fair we share some of this with our fellows friends up the coast

am I right in thinking the north sea will be alot colder come febuary, plus febuary is normally a cold month anyway, we could see something even more special come then, along way off I know but like you said we are just heading into winter now?

guys I cannot believe what has happened here the last two days, tonight it has snowed for 5 hours solid, I dont think I will ever see anything like this again for many a year to come, I had 1 ft of snow in my garden at 6pm and its been snowing all night, must be breaking records here, I would just like to know how long it will take to clear?, I seen on the weather tonight the temp on monday tuesday been 3 degrees, that wouldn't shift it alot, so I'm thinking by the time a possible reload comes in we could have some serious serious amounts of snow on our hands, am I right in thinking that way?

Well i'm lost for words, I have 1 foot of snow in the back garden and the blizzards and drifting snow is unreal, never seen anything like this, been like this constant for about 2 - 3 hours non stop,

Tell you what Cloud10, when I asked for a decent snow shower I did not expect this and theres more on the way looking at the orange sky heading in from the coast. This is deffo up there with Febuary 1992 snowfall event!!!

just got in from work and Ive just got one thing to say this is unreal, I aint joking when I say 5 inches of snow has fell in 5 hours and its still coming down

I ment us in Teesside lol, seems its still going to be abit further south though for our liking.
