Yorkshire & Lincs Regional Discussion 21/01/13 06z Onwards

[memories of 63]

Well I got back from Amsterdam on Saturday without a problem but due to fly to Paris today so worried about Jet2 flights. Tried the website but the flight info page won't load

[sunny scunny]

Have to agree its amazing here in scunny. Not the greatest of depth but still how it started here I expected nothing. I've had only about 3 hours sleep but I'm buzzzzzzzing. Just gutted my youngest daughters school is open but the eldest school is closed to which she replied I'm going back to bed!!!

And it's still snowing

I'm not sure how much snow we had during the night, but it looks quite deep on the grass now.I'll measure it in a little while.

We had a decent fall in the far west of North Yorkshire overnight. The winds were howling though so we got some pretty impressive driftf. The biggest on the field behind me was about 7 feet. Are we expecting more snow today?

[Machu Picchu]

Them bigger flakes are dropping again after a snizzle spell.

[Lincstim]

Just reading on fb that the snow could stall over Scotland for the next 24/36 hours. What causes this?

[Sunny_AS]

Haven't got access to radar, what's it like for Keighley/Bradford area for next few hours??

[Beverley Lass]

Good morning,

Sounds like those inland did really well for snowfall.

Here, 7 m from the coast, I have heavy wintry precipitation,

a real mix, but it is only just settling at 1º C.

I'm meant to drive for a medical appt. I think it'll be ok.

I'd rather be where you are, keep looking out your window, looks like a good spell is coming your way.

[syncmaster]

good morning peeps, looks like atleast 4" last night and starting to pick up again

on the euro view on nw extra radar still pulling it in from the continent though looks

to be a break coming, then more moving west towards us !!

[Machu Picchu]

Every forecast seems to have snow until midnight for the area but the radar shows otherwise.

Many thanks mate!

Moderate snow again in Hyde Park (Leeds), (I guess some would call it Heavy), falling on top of the 8-10cms we got overnight (haven't accurately measured). Another 3-6cms is possible from the forecast, which would be quite something. Very good fall of snow here. Could hardly sleep with anticipation.

[Just Before Dawn]

Very tricky drive into work over the Wolds this morning - There wasn't too much new snow at our house just outside Louth, perhaps 1.5 inches, but as soon as you climbed over the first set of hills, the snow depth increased and there were some impressive drifts. Now in Lincoln where it's still falling and there is a good 2 inches plus of fresh snow. Will post pics later.

just a little still being dragged screaming into the system lol,,,

The local forecast showed snow for much of the day for us, althougth becoming more patchy during the afternoon.Then a hard frost overnight with temps taking a tumble under clear skies

If you run the animation it looks like a glitch (lack of coverage?) in the radar as the end of the precipitation line jumps back and forth but the precipitation must still be there.

My guess is it is all connected back through the Netherlands and into Germany and it's all (well maybe...some) coming this way.

[syncmaster]

@sc looking at the bigger picture as my screenshot above this does look to be the case this morning think i will come into

town tomorrow lol,,,,,

[syncmaster]

if you run the animation its well connected just looks to be missing some data in that area

sorry forgot to quote muffelchen,,,

I am really surprised that there wasn't a wide-spread amber warning, these snow depths are identical, if not greater, than most of the snow that fell in the SW and the Midlands on Friday.

[Machu Picchu]

Radar showing a bit of meaty goodness coming this way, at least its still going and temps stuck at -0.6C.

[Mike]

Morning all, 4 or 5cm where i am in East Doncaster (Thorne), have driven to work to Wakefield and similar here.

Reasonable snow at present coming down so plenty of people skiving off today!!

[Snowday]

Best guess as to how much longer the falling snow will last here in Huddersfield?

[NW Leeds Russ]

16cm level snow here.....and still coming down.

Best here since Dec 10..

[LeeSnowFan]

Goooooooooood Morning

Well I am more than happy with the amount of snow that fell here!! and it's still snowing it's like NARNIA!!!

[bryan629]

probably rest of today, dayligh hours at least...low pressure stalling/stalled and good easterly feed . expect some impressive totals
