who's noticed Topcliffe is already at -7C? Going to be a cold night there!

Topcliffe 2000 + 0.7.

[bazookabob]

Hmm according to the metoffice website, the temperature at Topcliffe just rose by 7 degrees in 1 hour!! What's going on, and why have the fragments of showers I've been getting here been of sleety rain!? It's all gone wrong!!!

It's been just snow here, fortunately the mild sector has now passed.

In Garforth the temp is 1c and dew point is 0.5c was 1.4.c 30 minutes ago, so expect all showers to now fall as snow.

[disco-barry]

It;s balmy, 5.6 in fylindales, must be an error!

....snowing moderately outside at the moment, temp is 0.4 with dp of -0.6.

.....What is that trough looking thing swinging round to a westerly direction over Ireland?

Definately nowhere near as cold as predicted today or this evening , had a top temp of 2.2 here today ! and 0.2 now ! Earlier shower fell as sleet !!

Have we missed something here ? I was expecting an ice day today

Oh really? Cool thanks for that! Just out of interest where can I find my local temps/dewpoints etc, just for future reference? In the meantime i'm going to scrutinize the radar to try and find the inevitable gap in the showers which will surely head straight for me!!

I can only suggest at Topcliffe that some cloud and a westerly drift rolled in. The temp rose rapidly here from -3.9 to -1.8 in 20 mins here when a fragmenting shower headed towards us earlier, now falling again. But it didn't see it at -7, was it really or was 0.7 misread??? - an easy mistake!

[Craigers]

that trough looks like it could hit the regions that had snow today

http://www.wundergro...sp?ID=IWESTYOR8 Not for Garforth but in Leeds, station is 86m ASL.

And yeah you are in the gap, but the gap is filled up nicely with showers just a bit more time to get there.

Its snowing here!

Edit: It was bad luck you got sleet, because when the warm sector was at it's peak was when a shower passed.

Not snowing here as yet , i am however expecting a few showers through the night , hoping also that this temp drops ... Looks like the 'mildest' ( if you can call it that ) night so far of the last 5 !!

Location : NE Leeds ( Wetherby Road )

Current Temp -0.1oC

Many thanks for that, appreciate it... i'm gonna lie in bed with a book and put raintoday radar on full screen on the comp while i read a book! I'm willing the showers to hold it together! Night all!
