Yorkshire, Lincolnshire And The Pennines Cold Spell Discussion

[Craigers]

off out now people! have a good night and HAPPY SNOWY NEW YEAR

[Pennine Ten Foot Drifts]

Temp fallen away fast here, now down to -1.5C, DP of -4.2C. Not much in the way of cloud cover, and virtually no melt of lying snow through today so still pretty much 100% cover.

I'm pleased it's clear enough to enjoy the

Blue Moon and the partial eclipse happening now.

Just wondering,

What's your thoughts on the showers John, will they start sinking southwards when the wind switches to a more Northerly component.

just had the telescope out ....what a beautiful partial eclipse ........and a blue moon ....amazing

thanks Beverley Lass ......it looks great from Newbald

[Cheese Rice]

Under one of the showers, it's snowing here. Temp -0.8c, Dew -1.8c

[Richard Lake]

A few more powdery flakes here. I love seeing powdery snow - not a common sight around these parts.

[Lewis]

Showers ever so slowly moving south, with some showers forming just East of us in the N sea, should start to get interesting now, as the GFS had showers pushing close to over us around 8-10pm

Fingers crossed for later mate,although surely we can't get as unlucky as the other week Im not going to look at the radar for a while yet.

Ever so light snow here in East Leeds, as it appears on my camera.

big fluffy flakes and immediate settling here in chapel allerton, leeds. definitely would not call it light!

[Grimsby Snow Lover]

Light snow here at the minute, beginning to settle on cars. The radar is looking more interesting too.

[chrisb1357]

Well am staying in tonight with suspected swine flu and watching the radar and forums. Not much happening around this area

Wouldn't call it moderate either, just light snow with medium size flakes.

Edit: I would be really surprised if LBA achieved -9.c, http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/forecast/2535?count=10

hmm, wouldn't call it anything now! all stopped!

[Grimsby Snow Lover]

We keep getting the odd light flurry that settles for about 2 seconds then melts, must be down to the air temp being around 3. The dews are good though, well below freezing at -4

[Cheese Rice]

Been snowing for the last 30 minutes, the snow is light to moderate, there is now a dusting of snow.

Fortunately I'm now in the line of showers

[swfc]

Big downgrade on latest bbc forecast for showers tom.

Big downgrade on latest bbc forecast for showers tom.

Yeah. I though that too. Little if any snow showers over us tomorrow, perhaps over the North York Moors. Still hopeful thought .

Is there a reason why our temps here near the coast are so high (3 degrees) Why are they not nearer freezing like during the last cold snap?

[Muffelchen]

Seems to be a ferw showers heading in this way from the N Sea now. Temp here -0.6°C with DP at -6.4°C.

[Jeremy Shockey]

yes ....something for East Yorks coming up ......Wetwang to Humber area ...ish

[Cheese Rice]

Looks like showers will be finally reaching East Yorkshire, we have had quite a few showers tonight with some big flakes, mostly light to moderate in intensity.
