Yorkshirepudding

East coast should start seeing snow as early as tomorrow later on a few may drift further inland. Tuesday is where the showers intensify and become more widespread with a more organised band of showers moving NE - SW ( Although the exact track is uncertain so watch this space ). Following that the deepest cold starts to set in intensifying showers again some will do better than others but the whole region is in the firing line as shower reach as far as the west coast and Northern Ireland. Thursday is a very similar setup although no weather warnings are in place but I’m sure we will shortly. Then to Friday there’s a potential of a low pressure system coming up from the S/SW although this is a long way off yet and may just slip south over France if it does come into Britain however it could bring some large amounts of snow obviously we don’t know if it will reach this far north as we don’t know if it will even hit the uk. Then to Saturday same situation more showers. We truly are in for a treat next week and into the week after. I’m looking forward to seeing icicles again and lying snow fields and beauty sunshine inbetween the showers. Wrap up warm and keep safe and look after the vulnerable these events don’t come around often..

I live in West Yorkshire and I remember in 2010 showers coming from the east turned into a Streamer my area had forcasted dry only a few hour earlier with the potential of a few isolated showers we ended up with 3-4 hours of continuous snow fall and about 4inchs of snow. They can’t predict what hasn’t developed they can only guess. My point is anywhere has the potential with these set ups so let’s wait and see what develops. Yes some will do better than others but that’s always the case but I don’t think anyone in our region will miss out completely.

I fully expect further updates tomorrow if not later today.. The luckiest who have the most frequent showers will be buried by the end of next week with no let up in sight and freezing temperatures even during the day accumulations could get insane.. keep safe all and keep in mind those vulnerable people around you it’s really happening for once!

In 2013 I had 15ft snow drifts that blocked the road to my house the farmers had to dig the community out as well as their life stock those guys do a tramendous job without a single aid from the council even though it’s council owned my hat goes off to them guys...

Good try but not the same street..

Coast or not you should receive snow with these runs the cold is that intense..

Sun will always melt snow. However if the runs continue on the same path the day time temperatures will struggle to get above 0c so creates another hazard in the form of ice and compact snow. Think icicles and how they form. Slight melting from a heat source like the sun or heat from your house melting in subzero temperatures. Cut a long story short the melting will be minimal and what does will create further problems. The councils will truly have there work cut out trying to keep major roads open potentially very difficult conditions ahead if the heavy snow and cold comes together.

All the models are gearing up for some kind of event how bad and how cold and how much snow we get only time will tell. If we get streamers with extreamly cold weather followed by weather systems pushing up from the continent stalling over central UK it could be an event not seen for our area since 91. Whatever happens our entire region should see at least a snow flake going into next week and into the start of March as even a downgrade to these amazing models will still deliver something. But saying all this some of us may never see a better setup and if it delivers it has the potential for some extreme disruption for most the UK.

Sorry buddy I didn’t mean to sound sarcastic if it came across that way or any other way some people just get confused by wordings on forecasts as we are classed northern England and when they see Central they assume midlands when in fact the likes of Leeds/Bradford is pretty much the most Central part of the UK. ?

Yorkshire is Central and eastern. The Met Office forecast is for the whole of the UK.

And there's been upgrades to this also. ?

There's the potential for the showers to intensify later in the afternoon into the evening for some. Hills may get a dusting but not expecting anything of real worth. Saturday/Sunday again could off some snow for some especially higher ground as a potential weather system moves in from the NW. Next week however is looking better still with these Models upgrading favouring a more intense cold spell that we haven't seen since 2012/13. Watch this space going into next week.

There's the potential of a Weather system moving in from the NW Saturday/Sunday with the potential of It turning to snow as it hits the Cold air. Altitude will probably be a factor of where the largest snow Accumulations happen but it's possible there will be snow even down to lower levels. With the increasing model upgrades favouring the cold snap to increase through next week watch this space come Tuesday/Wednesday we could be in for some interesting events that we haven't seen since 2012/13.

Cowling ?? Current heavy shower too..

I live Addingham Moorside. Not getting up the track I live down without a good 4x4 or Tractor. @cowdogwhere you live? I got about the same as you snow wise

I'm only afew miles away from you Joggs. Given I live on the moorside I've got around 2". We are still very much in the game for some more Snow Showers this morning calming down after dinner. But we are still very much still in the game for tonight/Early hours tomorrow for snow. The Forcasters are still very uncertain the exact track as it stands we will get a period of snow/Sleet depending on elevation on the leading edge turning to rain for a breef time before becoming cold again. But it the Low tracks in 50miles south of its current projection we could see an all snow even with some substantial snow accumulations. Again more for higher ground but maybe a further couple of inches at least to lower levels. But like I said the track is key we want to be just north of the centre we are currently around the centre if we go by the forcast on tv.

HP I couldn't agree more the earth goes through cycles. I think it's all about the tilt of the earth but now we are going into something that's a much bigger time frame wise in the evolution of the world and its atmosphere. For the winters to happen again like the 40s & 60s can and will happen if all conditions are right we are still breaking records set from years ago since records began for coldest nights & highest Snowfall all over the world. And we will continue to do so. It's the fact we are a small island placed where we are that we need all things to come into play perfectly to create the perfect winter.

Yes they give Amber warnings for 5-10cms these days.

I know tell me about it. That was from about 4 this afternoon they've been getting heavy showers all day. In fact if you look at radar he's currently getting another pasting. to him for choosing where he lives funnily enough I met him in Australia.. lol.

Can't submit the video so took a screen shot.

I have a friend who lives in Kincraig in Scotland just south of Inverness he sent me a video of the snow they have falling and on the ground. A little jealous.

I've had a cm already this morning and the more organised showers aren't expected till mid afternoon. Have faith my friend but unfortunately when it comes to showers some get luckier or unluckier (which ever way you want to look at it) than others.

Netwether perception of my local weather forcast.. lol.

If the low goes to our south west I think that would be ideal for a snow event for us as it drags down colder air with it. If it stays where it is we may get some snow on its leading edge depending on elevation. Honestly I'd prefer it to miss us completely if the above doesn't happen as it will just turn to rain wash any snow lying from Tuesday/Wednesday and it will mean I will keep my roof. Still a very interesting week a head weather wise whatever happens even scary for some and dangerous.
