Crikey, you're still on the edge of it and there is a looooooooong draw of precipitation on your doorstep moving at snails pace! It just doesn't look very heavy but I'm sure it'll intensify as it climbs the hill to Consett!

Moderate-heavy here now looking like a long spell of maybe 4 hours if the radar can be believed

I tell you what chaps, this is starting to look like a big event, just look at how much is still to come. It's pepping up down at my place too.

Moderate in Darlo now too. Just need that blob to the north east to keep on getting bigger. Hoping it manages to hit us! Turning out to be an interesting evening this! Xbox time whilst glancing at the radar and the window now I think :p.

This must be one of the most tedious snowfall's ive ever seen Lol. Heavier bursts are so far few and far between and all we are getting is mostly light stuff.

I'm glad some are enjoying it though. :p

A few inches...Unbelievable I have just a light not worth measuring covering and I am just up the road. Still moderate to light intensity here, no sign of heavy snow. Its best in S. Northumberland. ANOTHER NEAR MISS FOR NEWCASTLE THIS IS TORTURE. The Easterly kicked in about 1hour too early!

On a more positive note, be aware of the showers forming out to sea which are heading directly for us.... Should make landfall in 2-3 hours.....

Exactly what I'm doing, on Football Manager on the Xbox with my laptop by my side and the blinds up just enough to see the lamppost. Nice way to spend a night, and it's Friday! :)

Still only very light here but it looks heavier to my east, visibility is reducing now.

Even after this lot clears those showers are still looking on course for later.

Yay....Newbottle, Sunderland DH4

It started snowing at 8:20pm and it has just continued to snow....small snow flakes, it is -2 oC outside.

I think this weekend will be a big snow event for the NE drinks.gif

I would like to think so, but tonights GFS says not. By the time any decent ppn arrives the 528dam line is in Scotland!!!

All could change though.

Now moderate to heavy snow here. Temp -2.2c which is 1.5c warmer than last night during the snow....Evidence the wind is now turned East.

Snow is turning a little bit more moderate but the flakes are still too small to get excited about.

Very tedious and if we had no snow on the ground, a light covering would of been acheived by now after about an hour and a bit snowfall.

Turned quite a bit heavier albeit small flakes but better than before at least. :acute:

In an assessment of tonights models...The end of this cold spell is drawing near, but its certainly not going to get mild in the near future and there is a proper scandi high building up, which if given some time to mature, could pull severe cold in from Siberia and then deliver the killer blow to the UK.........

So it might warm up soon or it might not then?.... :p
