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

[Koyli19]

if there was wind then it could of been a white out

hello maxdamageukno1

very true, but thank goodness it was short lived.

moderate snow falling but smaller flakes

[Mark Bayley]

Snowing lightly here, its alternating between big flakes and small flakes, generally though we are having small flakes with a few bigger ones mixed in

[Craigers]

looks real bad in scarborough!!! high ground will be so good there!! good job i didnt go surfing today!

[Koyli19]

Where on earth did this come from! I must say this event completely passed me by when looking at the models. It looks like quite a large area of precipitation aswell, so there could be some good totals from this.

Currently 0.9C with moderate/heavy snow and a good dusting on grass and cars. Its a little bit wet to lay on the roads yet, but as it gets heavier this should improve.

On night shift again so should be able to watch this

hello reef

whilst the models are very useful they cannot foretell everything, especially as there are more than one to study.

it is not a bad idea to have an understanding of basic meteorology anyway, and get to know your own area and its good and bad points weather-wise.

thats how i started, and it all makes for good practice

true, but you could have gone ski-ing though

[Grimsby Snow Lover]

Still snowing quite heavy here, the last blades of grass are disapperaring which is always a good sign in my book. Judging by peoples comments this was fairly unexpected and there appears to be more to come

[Hurricane Andrew]

According to the radar East of York is taking a good hit at the minute, anyone confirm this?

We now have our usual 3cm

Yup i can confirm it, lashing it down

look at this!

[Matt Jones]

Totally unexpected, the models did suggest this could happen a good 4-5 days ago but as usual it dissapeared from the runs and forecasts, Paul Hudson will probably get another beating from Levy.

[sunny scunny]

Much heavier here finally. Plenty more to come hopefully

[Koyli19]

Indeed, thats what I meant by how this event seems to have passed by unnoticed. It wasnt forecast anywhere. The Metoffice last night had today as cool and cloudy after an early frost. The showers last night which gave a covering at work to the east of the city werent shown either.

The temperature has fallen to 0.6C now and its exceptionally heavy. We now have a good covering on the grass and its beginning to lay on the roads and pavements.

What was the forecast from Hudson?

'Light snow in the evening, nothing that will cause any problems mainly over the east yorkshire and lincolnshire wolds'. Mind you he is based over in the leeds studio. His yorkshire forecasts are much more detailed a lot better than the ones we get.

[NorthantsSnow]

Snowing in Thrapston, Northamptonshire. Here in Northampton town; nothing. Shame, but after what happened this time last week, one cannot afford to grumble!

[Arnie22]

very light now almost to the point of stopping - hopefuly a small blip

theres plenty showing on the radar to the north of you arnie22, so as you say its just a blip

[nrhforestry]

Heavy Snow here about 2inch including the snow left from last night

[Arnie22]

could do with that area off the coast of easy yorks moving this way - looks quite heavy

[sunny scunny]

It's almost stopped here atm.

[Koyli19]

yes it does look a bit intense.

trouble is the speed of movement southwards gives another couple of hours worth of snow in my area, maybe a little longer at a push.

[Arnie22]

yes - just a blip here k19 - coming down heavy again - even the breeze is picking up
