Snow Watch: N&W Yorks, Northern & North East England

[Geordiesnow]

Looks like i am going to get a bit of snow in a sec, dark to my South and East, whether it will last and get much snow from it we will see.

Nice pics Nigel, its been so poor regarding frequency of the showers that the snow is actually quite patchy looking on some of the roofs.

Hey Guys,

Just thought I'd pop-in from the South East for a tad.

There is at least one foot of snow on the patio and

table and still coming down in shedloads.

It started last night about 8pm and hasn't stopped

all night. Some bloke in Epsom says he's got 14"...!

Gonna get even more this afternoon coming up from

France.

Oh no...not another day off work!

Enjoy it all.

Best

Andy

Looks like a heavy shower just coming in now, a patch of red on the latest radar update!

Nice pics, I would take some but i've got to leave for work soon.

Hopefully I can get tomorrow off and have some fun :lol:

Well that shower never lasted and i think it had a bit of rain mixed in as you can see small rain drop type of holes in the lying snow we got, contained some hail i think aswell by the looks of it.

I'm getting really frustrated here. All the showers that are coming off the North sea, seem to be going around me atm.

Having just said that, it's started snowing again :lol:

Showers are really picking up though now. I'm hoping they'll be here about 8.45

Me too, we've got blue skies at the minute I can see cloud to the North of me but none over head.

Well this is excellent- about 3 inches here already, though not impressed that my mum woke me up to drive her into work because she was scared! Looking forward to more more more!

Moderate snow falling again now - which is perfect timing, as it gets me out of the school run

[lizziek]

Getting very dark again looks like we may be about to get another dumping

Yep its starting as I type! Will try and get some pics if its good

Hi Lizzie

What's it like in Haxby atm - My mum and my two sisters live there?

[lizziek]

Pelting it down, roads have covered in 5mins, seems to be slowing a little - we've got about 5cm but it'll be more now. Got some pics but can't find the camera lead will upload as soon as I get them

Thanks Lizzie, will look forward to seeing those

2 mins later the sun's out and its still snowing - this is just a little confusing!

[Yeti]

nice streamer on the way here, perfectly angled so we go right the way along it! should be here in the next 10 mins.

[Over the hills]

Really impressive blizzards here again at the mo!!! must be 4" now would have thought

By the time tonights band of snow clears around breakfast tomorrow the totals here are going to be unreal (in the even larger teapot :blush: )

Lizzie - glad you got the day off re school, no way will you be in tomorrow aswell here in Tad should the forecasts verify!

[paul tall]

An unimpressive 6cm here. Whats all the fuss about?

[John in the frozen north]

Had about 7-8cm overnight in Hexham.

All the schools are shut so I'm out with the kids.
