Snow Watch: East Mids, Lincs And S & E Yorkshire

[Bottesford]

Heavy snow and a good covering again. What an interesting winter it's being!

[nrhforestry]

Its snowing here now a light covering on the grass Temp 0.0c

[Polar Low]

Really heavy snowfall here now, large flakes and sticking readily to all surfaces.

Much better!

[Matt Jones]

Lightish snow here, laying though.

[turna]

moderate snow falling here for about 30 mins, getting heavier as i type, laying on pavements and grass but so far not the roads.

Snow here, at sea level, with the weather coming from the west is a rarity, i am quite pleasantly suprised.

Damn right! Got a pleasant surprise when my housemate was putting out the recycling to see it really falling! Said he doubts they'll be round for it...somehow, I think they'll cope!

Btw...how far along is Canal House from like the MFI on Castle Boulevard? The Uni Real Ale Soc should be going there on Thurs for a beer fest there, I'd kinda like to go to, if I can find a fellow victim and where the thing is!

Some of the heaviest snow which is currently passing through, and approaching here... is set to move through to the Lincs area.

Really quite beefy showers... leading to fast accumilations here on top of the existing snow cover.

The snow is struggling to settle here and it's still only light.

[Will storm]

Very heavy snowfall here with main road through the village covered by an inch of snow. By the looks of things its not over for a while yet.

Seems we are in a 'light' part of the precipitation, things look much healthier west now, hopefully things will finally get going over the next half hour, if not all i can say is we were bloody unlucky!!

Much, much better now B)

for anyone further east , just been out and checked and a liitle more than half an inch as fallen on all surfaces here and its still snowing.

It is settling in places but some of the pavements and rooftops are wet.

It started snowing here at around 7pm and has gone from light to moderate now.

The temperature is 1.2C though, so it'll have to get heavier if its going to lay. Just wetting the ground as it stands.

[The PIT]

Should stop soon in Sheffield I'm guessing about an inch of new snow. Will brush it off tomorrow morning.

[Cal2]

Fingers crossed for the next hour or two or three :lol: .

Should be good for another hour at least .

Arent you in Cottingham though? Thats actually quite rural so it'll always be a tad colder.

20:00 temperatures were 0.9C at Bridlington and 0.6C at Leconfield (rural) compared to my 1.2C at the time, so taking into account that Im next to the river and city centre I think its pretty much what you'd expect.

A slight dusting on roads of all places now. Its too dark to see the grass. Snow still moderate.

[Lincs Observation]

Yep, but the metoffice shows different lol :wacko:

the radar im looking at concurs with the NW radar, there is two area of intense snow the first moving through the lincoln area the second has just passed through the Mansfield area. Both of these inner ppn areas is moving NE and building. i would say anyone in Skeggy could have the worst by the time its gets to the coast also anyone on the S Lincs wolds.
