lets hope we get as much as poss, my family in sussex and my outlaws in gloustershire have had tons of the stuff and was feeling a bit left out down here. what is you take on the possibility of snow on sunday?

[dapick2002]

to be honest im not sure at the moment. we are certainly due some heavy stuff as we seem to be part of the minority that missed out. im going to stick with my original thoughts the other night and say 2-3 inches lying by sunday night, but any more is perfectly welcome I can't see this small cover thawing until next week

Edit: I think you'll do better than me by an inch or two being more north and closer to the coast...you guys always seem to have twice as much lol

just about to watch the hudson forecast on look north, see what he is going with and i will expect to opposite. lol

[dapick2002]

I think the forecasts this last couple of days have been really innacurate for snow round here.

[Light Without Heat]

Nice one by Pauly on Look North - he's loving it !

[Harsh Climate]

Showers ganging up now on the north yorkshire border, hopefully these should start pushing south westwards soon :lol:

[Richard Lake]

Took this picture earlier with R0b on the bank of the river hull, i have more that i'll add later.

Hope you like it.

What makes that the River Hull as opposed to the Humber Estuary? Huh Huh.

[hapifax kev]

Just been out for a couple of pints and missed the forecasts, any chance of white stuff for Halifax tonight?

[galba]

Interesting for my area - he suggested the snow showers will reach as far as the Sheffield area by 0600 tomorrow. We will know in the morning if he's right about it.

[Harsh Climate]

lol where is everyone. Looks like things are becoming interesting

Showers should now begining to push much further inland, expect a good 2-5cm in some areas!

What kind of time would you estimate the snow will hit this area and for how long?

Well according to bbc graphics and latest forecasts, a band of snow showers should reach us bye around 2am..

But looking at the latest radar, I think it could be much sooner, whether that be just a few preceding showers or the main lot im not sure.. Just have to keep an eye on the radar mate

I really hope so mate!!

Ye was a dissapointing, some areas got 1-2 inches.. Just goes to show how hit n miss those streamers can be . Woudnt complain if one affected my area though

I shall be to far South for those showers however I'm hoping for one or two flurries later tonight forming in that gap, i won't hold my breath though.

[skywatcher]

Keep an eye on www.raintoday.co.uk. You can see the showers gradually pushing in from the NE. They are now extending inland beyond York.

Mark anything can happen look at last night i wasn't expecting any snow at all yet we had 2 heavy snow showers that left a decent covering again on the roads aswell.

I got an extra dusting as well from a further snow shower, however thats all im expecting may happen tonight. Could be worse, the snow could be melting !!

Hi, you no how to zoom right in?? It doesnt seem to let you do that anymore

[stevied]

[Lewis]

Showers will start heading along the coast now and pushing South, so away from the coasts expect it to clear quickly.

Irritating, isn't it? It did until a few days ago. Don't know the answer to that, sorry.

[Harsh Climate]
