Yes I set up the weather station with her last July. It’s a very unique location as it’s a frost hollow at 385m, my highest frost hollow station. I’m looking at working with her hopefully this summer with setting up a station with her much higher on her land. She has 2000 acres with land that goes up to 560m asl but very tricky setting one up in such a remote area with no phone signal.

This morning was the 3rd time this winter parts of North Yorkshire have fallen into minus double digits. Coldest temps below: Many places then experienced an ice day with Litton not getting above -3c all day. Coldest maximum temps below. Meanwhile I was working on the North York Moors today which was truly stunning, deep snow, blue skies and sub zero temperatures. With more snow forecast in that area tomorrow this is no doubt the snowiest winter across upland North Yorkshire for many years.

This "cold" spell has been exceptional for those in the North of the county with elevation. Some places have seen snow falling everyday so far in 2021 bar today with temps dropping as low at -12c on a couple of occasions. Some places have also seen up to a foot of snow and one of the highest single daily total snowfall in many years. For those with a low elevation its been quite frustrating with the snowline being above my head on many occasions. If you live in Harrogate then its a cold spell to remember. If you live in Hull you haven't seen snow for 3 years....

A light sugar coating of wintry precipitation this morning. Meanwhile the Moors/Wolds above 200m continues to see accumulating snow. Trouble on both Garrowby Hill and Sutton Bank this morning it would seem. The North York Moors above 300 metres has seen snow on the ground since Xmas Eve now which is nearly 2 weeks. Elevation really has been a key factor in this “cold” spell.
