The most promising it's looked for days here

By the current track, it looks like it will miss me.  Better chances in S. Tyneside though...

The small LP tracking south in the N sea is bending the winds around to a N/NE, draping an occluded front from North to South as can clearly be seen on the radar.....question is...how far west will it get?

Band of showers heading steadily towards the region.... ETA 8.am

I'll be in the Newcastle-Durham areaon Sunday and keeping an eye on this feature. There is much embedded cold air at the surface and I suspect quite a few hours of snow would fall, of the wet variety before rapidly turning to rain, but it may arrive a bit later should the front be slower moving. I highly doubt 13 degrees will be recorded on Monday, there is colder air ready to attack from the NW, can see the warm sector being squeezed quickly.

NW... cold and dry again

Northen Scotland has taken an absolute pummelling this spell.

Anyone know the snow depths?

Significant shower activity reaching west to east in northern Scotland compared to before.  If they maintain their intensity then east coast could get something later.   

Showers up there appears to be tracking more north to south now instead of north west to south east as they were earlier?

Ive been keeping an eye on this.  Last chance saloon

That's quite a feature forming off the coast of NE Scotland, wonder if that's due to sink south later ?

If the wind was NE yes.  As it is it will head in the direction of these arrows

Looks like you are too far west.  Redcar looks to be on the edge

Here is my warning

[Far north and northeast of England weather discussion]

Showers been skirting the coast all night only hitting the far NE of Northumberland and E Yorkshire.  I dont think its going to change.   This has to be the coldest period without significant widespread snow in the region I can remember.

the Westmoor/Forest Hall snow shield has been deployed yet again

It's getting to the point now when it's more than just coincidence.  Too many times do the showers split to the north and south

[Far north and northeast of England weather discussion]

I am almost perfectly in the gap... 

[Far north and northeast of England weather discussion]

Wait...this is impossible... its snowing at -4.  All those years people have repeatedly told me that's too cold for snow... 

 

[Far north and northeast of England weather discussion]

Few flakes here.  Temp gone up to -4.5

I’m hoping we’ll see something by about 10pm. We still have some snow lying from Sunday.
 

Really regretting putting my Christmas tree in the bay window! Usually my lamppost watching spot, didn’t expect to sit there much before January. 

I would be getting the cutters out.  Just turn the cut side to the window, then when the showers are on rotate it so you can get down the side 

[Far north and northeast of England weather discussion]

It looks good up north, but that could end up dissipating or intensifying before it gets here.  What is of note is shower activity seems to be developing behind the main clump, so there could be more showers later.  Who's going to get lucky!... Not been a flake here so my turn!  One things for sure... the snow will be lying even on the sand!

[Far north and northeast of England weather discussion]

The ppn which signify a change of wind direction back to the N, is heading on this path.  Its also intensifying.  Lets hope the trend continues...

[Far north and northeast of England weather discussion]

Strange.  Sun has gone now so cant be that making the difference.  -3.2c now..

Its -2.8c here and I am only up the road from you.

What height is your sensor at?  Mine at 1.5M no where near any buildings.

[Far north and northeast of England weather discussion]

The band of showers is closing in... but its been weakened as it crossed NE Scotland.  Will it pick up more ppn in the area highlighted as it continues to head south?

Good morning, current temp -6.3C - Weather warnings still in place, band of sleet/snow in Scotland heading our way later today?, will the cold snap continue or not chats on the main model thread - interesting week ahead

I had -7.5c as the overnight low.

Been in the lakes since Saturday.  A light dusting here and there.  Most of the hills have no snow. No snow all the way back over the A69.  No snow back at home..  Quite surprising that many other places in the UK have snow  cover.
