Been driving around howardian hills today and caught some very heavy snow and hail showers, far more frequent then the forecast suggested. Decent covering in some locations, light covering almost everywhere from north York to the North York moors. With temps already below freezing any further showers will settle on all untreated surfaces. Showers forecast to die out, but still many heading in land from the north sea.

[Cheese Rice]

Woke up to a dusting of snow this morning, three times in a row. Plenty of heavy snow showers earlier with temps dropping to 0.c during showers, the snow did settle but soon melted when the sun came out, a few patches of snow left current temp -1.1c. GFS Looks very wintry for much of Yorkshire hopefully it will come of.

Snowing very heavily here at the moment. First time that the snow is really setting well today this close to the coast

[Winter Warmer]

a few snow flakes blowing round in the air which is strange because the sky above is clear

[on the coast]

Very heavy snow shower and nearly 2" of snow? No warnings or forecast??

[PMPhotography]

WOW!! Where did that come from! Stuck at work so not seen any forecasts all day. Had a few light snow showers through the day and then a REALLY heavy one just now lasting about half an hour with really good chunky flakes, Iv'e nipped out to the car park and theres at least an Inch on the ground. Radar shows a couple more showers heading in later.

Just seen that one on rain today looked healthy to say the least............

Looks like there will be some more to follow in that direction....

Was about time one of those potent showers made a direct hit on us Was a pain being down on the coast watching all todays showers going north and south of us

[on the coast]

Here it comes again!

Your not the only one suprised!! No pics. Sorry.

[Grimsby Snow Lover]

Your not the only one suprised!! No pics. Sorry.

Not doing as well as you on this part of the coast. We have got a very light covering and I mean light. Pleased you finally got some though.

[Cheese Rice]

Your not the only one suprised!! No pics. Sorry.

You sure you have 5cm? Not calling you a liar but many a time I have looked outside and thought I have more snow than there actually is, unusually when I think I have 5cm there is 3cm.

Quite abit colder here, -1.4c atm DP -2.7c. Have a very light dusting from these light snow flurries, the showers die out before reaching here and all we are left with are the remains.

I can verify! We had about 3cm's when I set off from work, depths seemed variable on the 5 mile journey home. I got home (Osgodby) and theres even more! 4cm's and light snow showers still blowing in.

Temp dropping away now at 1.0C with Dew Point of -2.2C.

[Craigers]

hows it looking for tonight!? got a very slight dusting here

[Arnie22]

just driving back from Sleaford and the snow was as heavy as I have seen for a long long time. Covered everywhere very quickly -

[galba]

Another hefty shower here - everywhere white over again. Looks like the showers are dying out now north of the Wash

The new radar is great...I can pinpoint the house on full zoom, postcode now redundant!

[grab my graupel]

I've been a bit too busy this evening to take a look outside. But when I popped my head out of the door a few moments ago, I was pleasantly surprised. There's a covering of around 1.5 cms. It doesn't sound a great deal, but it's much better than I was expecting.

[sunny scunny]

Another dusting of snow this morning from a few snow showers yesterday evening.still a few bits left where the sun hasn't got to work on it.
