February 8

Snowing moderately-ish at the moment. Starting to settle slowly on the cars, but not on the floor as yet

February 8

light sleet in Penistone now, but more rain than snow.

currently saying 3.8C outside

Nothing up in Penistone so far.

I've to get to work on the bus for 12 o'clock, let's see what happens!

December 2, 2023

Just traveling down to leek for a polar express experience. It's been snowing since we hit halfway up the east side of the woodhead.

Just near Buxton and (unsurprisingly) it's white over

Hope it's clear enough for us to get back!

July 19, 2023

the weather is just shocking to say it's mid summer!

we've got 13.6C and thick cloud with showers.

I don't expect red hot temps, but it should be better than this!

June 11, 2023

Penistone shield ruins it again

the storm has petered out right as it got to us!

June 11, 2023

Rumbling in the distance earlier, from a storm heading over Manchester and the peaks

we've now got rumbling coming from the Sheffield direction. so we could get a storm after all

June 8, 2023

100% cloud cover and still a chilly breeze here in Penistone. We had about 90 minutes of sun last night, then it clouded over again.

Let's hope the cloud breaks and it starts to warm up a bit

Hope everyone else is enjoying warmth and sunshine!

just snapped a few pics of the back garden before the sun hits it and the thaw starts.

(excuse the mess, we only moved in a few months ago and we're waiting on planning to go through before we do loads of work to the house and garden)

Good morning peeps!

Stay safe if venturing out

Amazing difference in just a few miles! Very little snow left on pavements and roads now, just on the grass. Will be interesting to see if we get a change back to snow when the heavier precip over Sheffield reaches us.

as you say, it's amazing what just a few miles and a bit of elevation can do. still snowing heavily here!

March 9, 2023

just sat waiting in Barnsley bus station and the roads around here in the town centre are starting to get a layer of snow here and there with bits of slush in the other bits. won't be long before it starts covering properly.

Dog walk at 6.30

I'm headed up your way by bus in about half hour, still trying to decide whether it is worth attempting the journey from Penistone. I don't want to get stuck without a bus if the heavier stuff gets here before I can get home

Just got in from work and wow,...i didn't expect this snowfall today and much further north than suggested yesterday

still snowing and settling now and it looks on for a few hours yet,..ppn on the increase from the E/SE

and an amber warning for tomorrow into Friday,...it's about freaking time we hit the jackpot

should be fun coming home from work tomorrow afternoon to test my new mokka 4x4 out

the Mokka 4x4 is fantastic in the snow. We had one up to about a year ago.

a few years ago when the BFTE hit, we were carers at that time and it got everywhere (we live out at Penistone)

we only got stuck once, and that was because we hit a 7 foot snow drift

February 20, 2022

the River Don here in Penistone has burst it's banks in many places, livestock have been swept away and the Stocksbridge Bypass is closed due to flooding

January 6, 2022

Metoffice has us down for frontal snow around 11/12 today, then Snow/Sleet overnight from 3am until Heavy Snow from early morning onwards.

We've now been lumped into the warning too. Fun day off watching the weather ahead....

I wasn’t aware it had snowed in Sheffield, it snowed in my location about 10mins past 12midnight making it the 26th and the front bringing the snow was travelling south? Although they officially paid out for Leeds Bradford airport which is slightly south east from me. Unless it was due to snow flurries earlier in the day?

Don't know how to confirm it, only anecdotally (like here ), but yep, Penistone had a few snow showers around lunch/ early afternoon.

It was just starting as we arrived for our Christmas Dinner at Grandma's

January 4, 2022

woke up this morning to a covering of wet snow on the bins, sheds and cars. nothing settled on the floor though (just a little on some astroturf we keep on the back garden for the cats)

It's showing something rather tasty around here on Friday on NW forecast, anything actually going to come of it?
