First Ground and Air Frost Watch Season 2021-22
NorthYorksWeather replied to damianslaw's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Nothing in North Yorkshire yet, quite late compared to recent years. Ravenseat in Yorkshire Dales saw 0.6c in August and in September but no air frost just yet. -
Woke up to a dusting of snow here this morning as snow showers moved in off the North Sea. Yesterday was absolutely crackers with snow settling on the beach at Robin Hoods Bay and 2 of my weather stations falling to -8.2c overnight. Keld fell to -7c this morning and thick snow lay across parts of North Yorkshire from stationary showers in the west last yesterday evening and snow showers this morning in the east. I missed out on any of the fun yesterday but had to have a ride out this morning to the nearby North York Moors. A few of my highest weather stations have a mean temperature of just 1c so far this April with hard frosts looking to continue over the coming nights. As an extreme weather enthusiast I've found it quite hard to contain myself over the last week or so.

Just scraped an ice day here with a high of -0.1c. Here's a picture of my back garden this morning which remains unchanged this evening, still around 3-4cm left of lying snow. We've had a steady wind chill today of between -8 to -10c but the highest weather station in North Yorkshire on Meugher (575m) in Nidderdale recorded a windchill of -19c at 8am this morning, Ventured out onto the nearby Yorkshire Wolds to see some of the drifting and it was incredible, not as big drifts as BFTE 2018 but still impressive nonetheless. A lot of people we getting caught out with how deep it was and a few people got stuck and had to be towed out. Here's a few pictures from around the Thixendale/Garrowby Hill area.

A low of -6.9c here this morning which is the coldest temperature I've recorded in 8 years. Currently still around 4cm of lying snow outside after a slight thaw in the sun today My weather station at Thixendale on the Yorkshire Wolds fell to -13.2c overnight which was the coldest place in England. Last night was a perfect set up for cold there with around 10cm of snow, light winds and clear skies. Here's a few pics from that area:

Fresh covering of snow this morning after we managed to catch some showers overnight. More showers coming my way now so il wait before I go measure. Here’s the 24 accumulation chart since 4am yesterday morning. Perhaps an amber warning would of been more suited for places further North? Looks like eastern parts of North York Moors have seen 10-15cm in this period.

Whilst its clear to see where the convergence line is on the radar there is plenty of convection all the way down the east coast. Further north towards Scarborough, Whitby, Brid etc the showers are more spaced out but look much heavier, the type that would keep their intensity as they head inland. Meanwhile its chucking it down with snow here. South View1-045637-045651.mp4

The 850s over the region are currently -4/5c so only conducive for hill snow on the easterly flow. These will slowly drop overnight along with the snowline and by morning the whole region will be covered in -11c so anything after that will be snow to all levels and remain that way well into the week.
