Yorkshire, Lincolnshire And The Pennines Cold Spell Discussion

[davey147]

Well we have light snow in Hackenthorpe and only 100 meters above sea level anda mile from the Rotherham boundary.

A slight thaw here today. The powdery snow has compacted together but there is still over 10cmand the pavements are even more slippy

Its crap, im lower than you im at 120ft. Also about 15 miles ish further north.

Light-moderate snow at times, with the odd heavier burst, so far 1-2cm of fresh snow, if nothing improves till 11:59PM, I give up. The big band over Norwich and the east coast looks to be heading here, we should do very well from that.

[Schnee]

Raining here. Snow is also melting at a steady pace.

Good old Rob M on news 24 "for the moment winter not quite as harsh as it has been,but do yourself a favour and do not try and cross the pennines in the next few hours" Nice

Yep, I heard that as well, and to be honest I wouldn't disagree, it's getting quite unpleasant out there now, and if that rain band just crossing E. Yorkshire gets this far and turns to snow, it'll get a lot worse before it get's any better !

[Snowday]

Major set back of being at the coast in winter

Glynn where in Hudds?

There's a Scar Lane at Lockwood. Could be there...?

This is the same Rob that said the night before not a drop of rain tomorrow.

Had a lovely moderate/heavy snow shower for about an hour earlier. Since then had rain and its washing away all my lovely snow cover

But he is correct tonight.The synoptic set up for today was always a developing one,even he said that.Many pros were found wanting due to 2-3 degree warming over north sea, not expected.Cut the man some slack.

Not good, still snowing here, I'm 100% sure it will turn back to snow, the temps rose by 0.3c earlier due to lack of any moderate precipitation, the PPN was very light indeed. A more organised ban of precipitation is moving in and temps are already dropping so it should readily turn to snow .

[stumathers]

Nice big flakes blowing around now.

[SnowRules]

Hasn't stopped snowing here but light all the time with small flakes

[Cheese Rice]

Slightly heavier precipitation has made it here, after a brief rise in temps the temp is now the lowest this evening at -0.1c, the snow is settling readily even though it is a bit heavier than light.

'But he is correct tonight...' yeah hindsight wonderful thing that. :D

[Stokesy]

Waft some of it my way please? 

[Cheese Rice]

Hows it looking where you are?

[Becca]

Waft some of it my way please?

Snowing quite a bit here now and i am only 5 miles from you so you may see some shortly.

[hapifax kev]

Just started snowing quite heavy here

[Stokesy]

Absolutely nothing for a good hour and a half now Having rice pudding to cheer me up!

[SnowRules]

Just started snowing quite heavy here

Yeah it was heavy, seems to be light to moderate now..

[hapifax kev]

It's such a tease! A couple of hours of that would do us just fine!

[Stokesy]

Perhaps another well timed snow dance might be in order? It worked earlier (some may call it coincidence though.....)  :wacko:

[Cheese Rice]

Moderate to heavy snow here, for last 10-15 minutes, main roads are covered, and the car next door that was cleared 20 minutes ago has a fresh 1-2cm of snow cover, things are looking good!
