Moderate snow here, lovely big flakes floating down, best snow all day and night.

A few people are going to get a nice surprise when they wake up

[Freezing-Point]

Looks to be an inch of fresh snow here. Temp back below O...-0.5c. It could have been more if the band of snow had moved in a more easterly direction.

That feature didn't behave exactly like the ECM hi res IF was showing I'm afraid - not as much E'ly flow and so most of us south of morpeth missed out on anything significant.

Yeah it looks as though it glided across the NE coast into inland Northumberland, as shown by the latest amended EC and radar.

We see another band moving into us from the E around midday- will be interesting to see if the wind dir changes. About an inch or so of fresh snow here this morning.

[Isolated Frost]

That was the beast that unleashed 4 inches in less than 2 hours- I remember clearly the most heavy hypnotic snow I'd ever seen, incredible!

[scottrh19]

Nice fresh cover here in the Boulmer area, a nice surprise after the melt yesterday, about 2 inches of fresh snow and we are right on the coast so must be really deep inland. Most of he schools in Alnwick have shut.

[Alex95]

A little less than 2 inches of fresh snow here

[Smoggieontour]

IF, which areas will be affected around midday according to the high-res ECM? Cheers.

[Alex95]

Looks like marginality returns later this morning - expect drip drip drip if we get any precipitation at low levels!

[Guest]

Quite pleased this morning, another inch of snow fell during the night and it's still snowing now, albeit lightly :-)

[ballybabe21]

Light snow falling all the way from Aycliffe to darlo. Moderate in some places. Roads are great. I quite like having snow and being able to travel easily. :-) very pretty.

[gordonm]

Woke up to a fresh covering this morning about an inch.

[Snowmaggedon]

No additional snow overnight I don't think, anymore snow today?

[ballybabe21]

Lovely snow falling at lingfield point in Darlow :-)

Very light snow here at the moment.

[paul tall]

Had about 1cm overnight, snowing at the moment. 0.1ºc

[Smoggieontour]

Looks like an intense line of snow in the north sea heading for Newcastle, Sunderland, Northumberland etc in the next couple of hours.

Don't think it's going to affect Teesside.

[Mick Ormiston]

Is the wind direction going to turn more easterly?

Approximately 9 inches of snow (22cm)

Nice covering of snow in Darlo now still coming down lightly
