Yorkshire And Lincolnshire Regional Discussion Thread Part 2

[Fentonsnow]

CF is east Leeds of by about 10 miles and I haven't seen anything particularly heavy on the radar.

Thats some exceptionally localized snowfall.

That is on the path right in front of my house. can't be affected by drifting etc....quite surprised. Possible 15cm's I guess by the end of the night. It's bloody cold out here though. No city warming 18 miles to be exact (from Leeds city centre) Gotta be looking good for Lincs later?

Garforth 10cm's - I would concur with that by the way.

tiny flakes here in Skeg I'm hoping that if you guys in Boston have it we wont be far behind

[Craigers]

Good 3-4cm here.!!!!

[Yorkshiresnows]

Hi Folks,

Awesome snow, heavy and blowing in Strensall North of York.

Easily 2-3 inches (plenty of drifts too).

This has so far already exceeded my expectations.

Yes, it's snowed all afternoon in Skipton but only really got going in the last couple of hours. I think there was a bit of freezing rain mixed in for a while. Still think there's a bit more to come...

[SnowRules]

Heavy snow here, nice big flakes, settling well.

[doctordunc]

BIg flakes now. Not teaplates, but 50p pieces certainly!

[Aaron]

Looks like the heavier snow will bypass us.. dammit.

[Les Penniston]

Two people from boston, im just down the road in Kirton.

Ryan.

coming down really fast now must be the same in Kirton

[Lewis]

Lightest precipitation still across Eastern parts of Yorkshire, can see the heavier echos to the West and NW of this part of the region.

Just a case of waiting for it to come across us now, very very slow moving, if all of this was heavier precipitation, would have lots by now. All snow has settled, there's drifts over my kerbs on the road side etc, but it's patchier in other places where the wind has blown it away.

I wonder what Reefs verdict is, as it stands, East Yorkshire looks to be escaping the worse at the moment.

i see you had a good bit yesterday morning, hope it stays as snow for you being on the coast.

Depends on how far East.

I can now confirm it has stopped snowing all together. The wind chill is bitter though.

Radar looks good to me.

[Arnie22]

quite heavy here although very fine flakes - prospects looking good as still the main band is nowhere near yet

Great commentry as always Lewis,

What are your thoughts on Barnsley and the South Yorkshire area between now and midnight?

[The PIT]

Looks like a couple of more hours of snow for South Yorkshire North Derbyshire getting the worst of it where it looks heavy on the radar. We need the front to stall again really to give any decent depth here.

[Aaron]

Hi Mate, its Snowed here from mid-day but put maybe 5cm down in the last hour.

[SnowRules]

Same here. We're getting our fair share now.

[sparky10]

i thought we were gonna miss i completely LOL off for a walk in it before it stops!!

[Lincs Observation]

Update 18.51

Steady Snowfall, increase in wind currently 18mph and rising, covered ground now and we just about an hour and a half into what could turn out to be 6hrs of constant snow fall in Lincolnshire.

LO

[Becca]

Snowing really heavy here now,got quite a few cm,s in 15 mins.

[ITSY]

4-6cms quite widely on grassy surfaces, even the main road opposite my flat has 3cms of steady cover. just been out for a snowball fight in hyde park, definately enough for a good time, which i guess is the important thing! a bit less than i woulda wanted originally, but we could still get another hour or so of snow and end up with around 5-7cms which i'd take any day after this winter so far! Just off to look at what ECM delivered!

EDIT: seen the ECM - we have yet another run there offering greenland blocking into mid february! heaviest of the snow now falling! incredible stuff!
