  1. What's forecast for midday? Been sulking away from forecasts after mon/tues
  2. I'd say Sheffield looks a direct hit for a streamer.
  3. Looking at the shower trajectory over the last hour or so the showers are moving towards West-north-west. What does that mean? If a shower is over Grimsby it should hit Halifax. If a shower is over ingoldmells it should hit Sheffield. One over spurn point should hit Leeds etc. Wind direction is subject to change but this looks like the current situation. We got about an inch of snow today. Better than nothing but v jealous of North East England!
  4. Very poor show from met office. It was obvious from the 18z models and from looking at the actual radar hours beforehand it would be further North and West. Around 1cm here so looks wintry but no chance of sledging!
  5. GFS 18z looks to be more North West of region, although still lots going on with many showers.
  6. ICON 18z has it 1hr earlier, again just North West of Leeds.
  7. This link gives the South West Norway radar. Appears snow stretches up to there rather than just the thin bit on uk radar. https://www.yr.no/radar/sørvest-noreg.html
  8. The good thing about the met office warning is that they see it as quite highly likely to occur, unlike earlier warnings that were low likelihood.
  9. HIRLAM 12z not out yet but 06z looked interesting!
  10. GFS 12z similar to ICON. Going to go down to the wire with this system!
  11. This is the 06z APERGE. Don't think 12z has run yet?
  12. More detailed ICON chart. Seems to hit just North of Leeds.
  13. This is where the latest ICON model has the snow. Ties in pretty well with met office update.
  14. Three images below showing wind speed and direction today, tomorrow and Wednesday. You can see the increase in expected wind speed. Going from force 3-4 this afternoon to force 7-8 on Wednesday. Showers should be a lot beefier once the wind speed picks up.
  15. Here is the weather channel view of the "blob" as at around 730 this evening that is expected to cross somewhere in the uk tomorrow morning. Quite a substantial area of precipitation.
  16. Yes it's picked up here too, along with the wind. Anyway, just goes to show how pap the met office app is.... currently snowing and looks likely for most of the day. The app shows no snow for my area until 5am tomorrow.
  17. Latest radar shows near continuous light snow from West Yorks to east coast. Hopefully will get heavier as the day progresses.
  18. What is unusual is that individual snowflakes are settling with zero melt on impact. Looks like any snow falling will last for a while. Radar looks promising for later today too.
  19. Light covering here this morning. Snowing fairly heavily now. Looking forward to this week!
  20. I've got the weather channel storm radar app. Stretches out to Europe but unsure if it covers central North sea.
  21. I was thinking more of the better defined whitish cloud further out to sea... do radars go that far out?
  22. From the satellite at 4.30 before if started to get dark, there is a lot of cloud approaching from the North sea. I'm not sure if radars cover central North sea precipitation? Could there be anything interesting later this evening?
