Anyway got a link ton non-motorway road weather/traffic cameras for our region?
-
Looks great Unfortunately precip seems to be sinking south of me just as the temperatures drop enough for proper snowfall.
-
Might be time to dig out the old.... Atlantic breakthrough given massive snowfalls to the west of the country. Including us. All the way from Thursday night to Friday afternoon? I hear your cries about a breakdown though, a fair worry to have but fear not. Max temps on Saturday afer that snowfall
-
Quickest summary I can do to help you and anyone else out. Easterly Continues to later this week. Atlantic Low blows in from the west, however retains enough cold air to fall as snow across the west, midlands, south west and possibly push eastwards. The cold bed over the UK then breaks up the Atlantic low, with a Scandi high return us to frigid cold weather afterwards. Literally coldie fanfic charts.

Any houses up there for sale, at 500m you'd be guaranteed some snow from this
-
Sleet does not mean snow showers. Sleet is a wintry mixture of rain and snow. It's an entirely separate weather phenomena.
-
Tow law weather cam appears to be down? Been an issue up there?
-
Back to rain.

From the Yorkshire thread, something for all of us in that

Bring them inside, or heat up their outhouse so it's above freezing and keep them in that - at this short notice I'd imagine bringing in would be easier. They can stay out until around freezing, but as night temps are predicted to be much lower best to be safe side. Have read of attached RSPCA Guide. Rabbit winter care advice (pdf 428KB).pdf

Winter 2020/21 chat, ramps, moans and banter
Frosty the Snowman replied to Paul's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
There should be quite a bit of snow from the next 4-5 days - maybe not as much as 2010, March 2013 or March 2018 but widespread snowfall is highly likely. The snowless but extremely cold feature were looking at is the Scandi high that the models are starting to pick up on/suggest for the end of the week. If it aligns right it could kick in and maintain existing snow-cover without really giving much more. -
It can't be can it.....

Veering out of the realms of model discussion into snow impact discussion so swivelling across here to continue this debate. Infrastructural issues caused by some of those temperatures would be damaging enough and take long enough to fix without people needing to wait for roads to be cleared to get to the affected outages. If my powers going to go out due to frozen power lines etc I'd like it to be dry enough outside a) they can fix it sharpish and b) I can go out in it. -

Because it would be a level of deep cold not seen in the UK for many years over and extended period of time should that come off with such a strong Scandi High, trust me the last thing you would want with those synoptics is snowfall. -
Well the proper snow lasted all of 2 minutes, wintry mic again.
-
I mean his location is Bacup Lancashire, 1000ft up in the South Pennine or 304m asl Anyway turned to proper snow here at 180m asl - not sticking, not far from you, give it another hour on you'll probably join in the fun.

The one with the sheep? Ten issued with Covid fines as police swoop on illegal drinking den finding full bar and two sheep WWW.LANCASHIRETELEGRAPH.CO.UK Ten people have been issued with Covid fines after police swooped on an illegal drinking den, complete with full bar set-up.

Absolutely vile out there on my walk. Heavy rain most of the lower level route, with sleet as you climb elevation a tad. Hopefully we can get the clear cold air sooner or later, as this 'here's what you could have had weather' is the second worst behind summer heat.
-
Proper sleet now.
-
That's a SE flow rather than ESE flow at that point surely with the other one being E' flow? ESE seems like it would need to go somewhere between the two. Let's hope we get the right one. Anyway back to the here and now - there's definitely flakes in this rainy mix.
-
I doubt it. Would have to come through Peak District surely?
-
Would the scandi high showing up on the models be any use to us for snowfall? Would certainly be cold...
-
Because it's an organised front rather than showers from the north sea.
-
They've found the only pub still open by the sounds of it. Or wfhing with a large bottle of wine by them.

You'd think the pennines were a few thousand metres not a few thousand feet going by some of these charts
