Hurricane Nigel - Making Plans for?

Thankfully it switched; it was already looking to not be heading our way last night, now if the NHC is correct it's heading to Iceland, shouldn't be anything of note now for anyone. -
Hurricane Nigel Public Advisory WWW.NHC.NOAA.GOV This is heading our way, if the NHC is correct. It is expected to become a cat 3 or 4 tomorrow, but is very unlikely to hit at Hurricane strength when it gets here at the weekend, but still given the trees are still in full leaf this is going to cause issues.

Major Hurricane Lee

It is still a fish, but the NHC now thinks it won't turn, at least for the next 5 days; if they are right it's going to get close to the west Indies and could be a very massive storm by then, so even if it does turn could well cause issues due to tidal swells etc. -

Latest advisory from the NHC has it expected to get to 140 knots wind speed in 2 days, which is just inside the Category 5 limit. Also, the updated cone isn't showing any eastwards motion now, still not really near any land, but it's getting closer and closer. -
Here on top of the Pennines though it's very windy, surprised we aren't in a warning area as it's very gusty for the time of year.

As many keep saying, models were showing basically only light amounts for now, the bulk is this evening / overnight. Think of this as just an added extra. Snow is now moderate bordering on heavy here, but flake size has increased but still only a couple of mm's in size. Schools will be panicking now.

Current radar is interesting that band has really got some persistence, heavy stuff falling in York if it's true. FYI. Road cameras and weather conditions WWW.NORTHYORKS.GOV.UK View pictures of road conditions across North Yorkshire from our weather station cameras. North Yorkshire added loads of new cameras / weather stations on the exposed parts largely for snow over past couple of years, they finally have a good use.

Even the Met Office website is now starting to show snow for us. That's always the sign I look for, as until that shows snow it's not likely to happen. Hopefully we have some foot+ depths at some point this year, as lately we keep having these at most 10 cm deep ones and not had anything close to a foot now for 7 or 8 years.
