it wouldnt be such a problem if the snow showers were just as heavy but in another part of the country!! the fact that there so close to some of us and therefore missing us is just heartbraking!!And i mean in theory were just clutching at straws as there unlikely to affect east of the pennines otherwise it would have been mentioned on the forecasts

I heard the words snow shield? you havent tried living in the midlsnds lol.

These pics show a snowshield in full working condition.

Friday morning

Sunday evening

This morning

yes but you undoubtedly have more than here in shadwell??north east leeds.the snow on saturday developed a gap that went straight over us and even turned to rain n sleet

I don't think I agree, I guess time will tell.

Snow Shield! Ive never heard anyone from Leeds say we have a snow shield, hows your covering?

erm i guess its pretty similar to yours maybe a bit less-only a few miles from the airport. about 2/3inches.but thats pushing it. I am quite happy by the snow we have but it seems a shame that all around us seem to have a deep covering 'compared'. like north yorks, south yorks, west of west yorkshire and the south which should be generally warmer than here in theory. I mean saturday was such a let down here! and if it wasnt for the unexpected frequency and intensity of the snow showers on thursday night then i dont think many of us would have had that much really. But hey its early in the season and lets see wht the next few days bring us.

One to watch maybe?

Mate i dont think thats the path they will follow! There moving in a more south easterly direction to manchester (where they already have a load of snow). The snow shower thats heading towards us looks like a gap has formed again and coming straight for us. So all in all our snow shield is succesfully working! Also this morning paul hudson said to us that it was unlikely we would get any snow today just freezing temps!!

snowing here in shadwell!! sure paul hudson is excited as he is out in his drive!!

Currently a double whammy here. Cloud cover with sunshine every few minutes-so no doubt the temps will be rising rapidly again here in alwoodley, shadwell like yesterday!! whilst the rest of the country sits in sub zero air again!!
