Thanks for your forecast. I know you enjoy doing it but it is still appreciated.

Those showers just of Mablethorpe are starting to pick up, look good for us in Nottingham, look even better for those in deepest, darkest Lincolnshire (places like Louth and Lincoln)! :wacko:

Thats good for Louth. I think someone on here mentioned that they hadn't had much. It's good that they can join in the party too and I think they will have even more to come during the weekend and into next week.

Just done THE OFFICIAL RULER measurement and it's 17cms on garden table and 18cms on grass.

That means we had 7cms in about 90 minutes.

Rough guess is we've had 4cms this afternoon with more to come.

Corr Blimey!! Altnaharra -22C -7F

[Yorkshire, Lincolnshire And The Pennines Cold Spell Discussion]

Looks like about 2cm overnight, maybe an inch at a pinch!

I thought we were going to get a bit more last night but seems to have gone South instead. Forecast says more for today (2 inches or so), however, NW radar doesn't look to promising at the mo.

Current temp: -1.2°C with a DP of -3.2°C.

No but this does:

Several times this morning, I've looked out of the window thinking it was starting to snow when it was the wind blowing the snow out of the trees. A sign that the wind is starting to pick up!!

Looks like a small feature has developed heading into East Anglia which has sucked the life out of the weather that was heading towards us from Denmark.

Think we'll have to look to the feature coming in from the NE instead.

A fluid situation and a forecasters nightmare.

Right!! Off back to bed

Benson in Surrey -15C

Manchester -12C

Very impressive

[Cold Spell Discussion]

All forecasts are suggesting this Northe Sea low is going to hit East Anglia however it's track seems a bit more northerly to me and it also appears to be developing a lot more than I was expecting.

I would appreciate any comments from some of our wiser and learned weather buffs.

A Weird thing just happened.

We had a snow shower about an hour ago which topped up our 7 inches with a further quarter of an inch. Just been outside and not a cloud in view but its snowing from nothing !

Can see the stars etc but shiny small crystals are falling moderately. Never ever seen anything like it before

Fairy dust?

PS Thats one big streamer off the south coast............

[Yorkshire, Lincolnshire And The Pennines Cold Spell Discussion]

does that mean with it tracking further north us in the south of lincs will be missed again?

NO, I think it will hit Lincolnshire and South Lincolnshire but that it was also hit East Yorkshire.

Every forecast I have heard today has said that it would hit East Anglia as far north as Lincolnshire and as far south as the South East.

Cheers

[Yorkshire, Lincolnshire And The Pennines Cold Spell Discussion]

Looks to me like this low in the North Sea is tracking further north than predicted and developing which would be good news for East Yorkshire as it was forecast to hit areas Lincolnshire and further south.

One to watch!!

Does anyone else have a view?
