My side of the Wolds has snowcover this morning James.

The best I can do is a slushy deposit on the car windscreen. Approaching 3 years since any considerable settling snowfall here in rural North Yorkshire. Lets hope that changes before winters out!

Thixendale Grange at 214m asl now 0.6c with 0.2c dew.

Every shower getting more and more wintry now. Hoping for all snow here by 10pm, getting it to settle will be the hard part though as showers are rattling through very quick and aren’t packing much punch.

Steadily dropping away here now with some graupel and sleet showers. Temp: 2.2c Dew: 1.5c

Current conditions here in North Yorkshire starting at my highest station in the North York Moors. Blakey Ridge 398m asl Temp: 0.4c Dew: -0.2c Garfit Bilsdale 274m asl Temp: 1.3c Dew -0.7c Rosedale Abbey 135m asl Temp: 2.5c Dew 0.8c Kirkham Abbey 21m asl Temp: 3.6c Dew 2.5c

Currently sat in my lorry at Chop Gate in North York Moors 170m asl. Wet snow coming down in a fairly light showers. My weather station here reads 2.2c dew 0.9c

Ey up right over my house! That’ll do nicely .

Heavy graupel shower leaving a little bit of white on ground. IMG_4524.MP4 IMG_4524.MP4 IMG_4524.MP4

Heavier shower incoming this time. Temp 2.3c Dew 1.0c might manage sleet

Aye I find the automated met office forecasts bloody useless. Radar and local knowledge it usually comes down to.

Rain, temp shot up to 2.5c when shower arrived and it was light in nature. Still no snow cover here yet this winter apart from a mere dusting.

Shower incoming. Temp 2.2c with a dew of 0.5c, be interesting to see if there's any wintry element the shower. Meanwhile today a 21km hike with the wife in a very desolate Yorkshire Dales, sunshine and snow showers was the theme. Photos taken between 400-500m asl.

Just had a wee dusting here from a light snow shower that seem to pop out of nowhere.

Weird how those showers just hit land and popped out of nowhere. Why couldn’t that of happened here haha

Look further NE though James. That cluster still out at sea heading on a straight south trajectory, expecting this to clip eastern areas in the next couple of hours.

Unlike the GFS the NMM is showing a more prolonged spell of wintry precipitation moving SW across Yorkshire in the evening.

GFS highlighting the risk for us further east James. The earlier the better ideally for us lower down but Wolds would be a good bet for some white stuff.

My dream one day is to live above 300m but in a valley bottom. You then get almost all the extreme types of weather, somewhere like Keld in the Yorkshire Dales would be ideal which is a deep frost pocket at 330m asl.

Wet snow has been falling across the North York Moors this morning but most places have now seen a thaw of any lying snow and ice away from high ground. Tomorrow we see some colder air returning from the North after a "milder" blip in the weather today. In the morning it looks like there will be some showers running down the east coast which may feed inland slightly affecting east of the A1. Those inland with a bit of elevation could see something wintry from these showers. Eg; Moors, Wolds, Howardian Hills. Then later in the day around teatime we see a more organised band of showers push well inland that could possible affect the whole region. Again the further inland and the higher you are the better chance of seeing snow. All very marginal again which has been the story of this cold spell so far for those living at reasonable elevations however at least it gives us something to keep us interested/hopeful.

Anyone know if there is an 18z GFS this evening? A night off maybe?

BINGO. This is what we need to aim for for early next week, nothing marginal based on EC at 120hrs. No downgrades please, Regards, Vizzy

It was already -6c at a couple of spots in Dales at 5pm this evening. Couple of my sheltered hollows didn't get above -2c today which is quite impressive for what I would call a fairly mediocre cold spell. All high ground (300m +) is holding onto snow cover quite nicely across the region but I think the "milder air" coming in from the North today may erode this somewhat. I'm hoping the EC follows the UKMO with some sub -8c 850mb temps for a time next early next week which would increase the chances of some snow to lower levels.

Big change in precip track on 18z GFS so we need to hope we don’t see any more shifts or we might end up dry!
