oooo just missing me, blizzard to the north n south of me then, hopefully its all filling in from the west.

The good thig is every flakes settling, it would only take an hour of heavy snow to drop a couple of inches..

[Love Snow]

Let down in Leeds so far had one heavy snow fall at around dinner for 5 mins then it stopped

[Cheese Rice]

Feeling slightly more optimistic.

[snowlover2009]

here it is!!!

[Pennine Ten Foot Drifts]

Pretty steady snow for about 45 mins now, alternating between moderate and heavy, adding to what was already laying. Hard to judge current total depths though because the wind is blowing the snow off flat surfaces, but drifts are starting to build now. Temp hovering between -1.4C and 1.8C. Will try and get a few pics.

Yeah its North Leeds ATM, hopefully the showers will move a bit further south.

In other news another *$%£?/> warning for East Yorkshire, up to 20cm of snow possible http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/yh/yh_forecast_warnings.html

I didn't think there was much chance,but there is actually light snow here. If you look at the rain today radar site, it picks it up really well, with light pink blobs forming N of York heading East and you'll see one to the NW of Driffield, which has moved over us. Nothing much, but promising!

Now seems to be even more promising and approaching York.

[snowlover2009]

please tell me this snow will keep on coming voer the next 12hrs :blush:

The snow isn't too far away from my area,and it's clouding over.I'll be very surprised if it reaches here though.

M62 heading up towards Saddleworth from Manchester starting to look a bit dicey:

Looking at the radar there seems to be a quite organised band moving quite quicklt eastwards so you never know.

[stupotlee]

wow, well!

Been snowing for just over an hour sometime very heavy, sometimes light, and we've now gone from a few mm to a couple of inches!!

The roads are covered and I haven't seen a gritter yet - we're next to the main depot in our area.

Looks like the ppn is starting to get going from the west too, so could well be in line for quite a good dumping today! :blush:

just a little concerned that the temps are slowly creeping up!!

[snowlover2009]

i have a feeling this snow could be worse here than febs? snowing again!

brilliant. drifts up neighbours steps, it looks more lie america or scandinavia lol
