Yorkshire & Lincolnshire Regional Discussion 09/03/13 18z ----->

[Aaron]

seroiusly though, am i missing something?

why is the front moving N/NW? forecast is for it to be coming from the NE down across all of Yorkshire. Is the wind going to change overnight?

I believe this is the area of precipitation that will track over us in the early hours of tomorrow..

That is what the Met Office indicate, anyway.

3am tomorrow

4am

It should reach Sheffield after 6 am if the Met Office projections are to be trusted.

Aaron, thanks very much for that

Quite handy to know as I have family going to be going over the snake pass at about 4am tomorrow morning lol to Manchester airport! I said to them they should be ahead of the worst of it if they are lucky and you have suggested the same

cheers for your reply

Its like a different world here compared to further inland with moderation from the North Sea keeping the temperature above 5C for most of the time the precipitation arrived. Even now the next area has arrived its still 4.2C with a dewpoint of 3.6C and just cold rain. In fact this is the coldest it has been since 9am this morning!

Even marginal would have been nice here today, but its not even that.

[Snowday]

Well, absolutely zero here. The Huddersfield snow shield has done its job again!

[Love Snow]

Got a good covering here on the cars and paths !! Looks like heavy sleet at the moment was quite surprised when I looked out of the window !

[Love Snow]

Deep snow north leeds 150 m

Amazing so unexpected

[Bradowl]

Nothing here in Roth/Sheff.

[The PIT]

Bah Humbug. Nothing here dry and cold.

[Love Snow]

About 3-4 cm on the car still coming down quite heavy although its more of a sleety nature now

[godber]

staying for the weekend at the tudor house, bell busk near malham. heavy snow, thick outside, poor visibility, could mean interesting drive back to coventry later? The weather radar seems to have this area well targeted!

[Snowday]

My cousin is reporting several inches in the Harrogate area, but heavy sleet now so not sure how long it'll last now.

[bazookabob]

[Jonathan Lang]

[Aaron]

A winter wonderland this morning.

[JoeScun]

Very unexpected snowfall here in Scunny!

[Craigers]

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Wednesday and Thursday scattered, mostly light, wintry showers and sunny intervals. Friday frosty start with icy patches, then later in the day risk of persistent snow arriving.

Not bad at all!

[Adam lufc]

Why does everyone play it down!! Dear oh dear. Have some happiness

[tayzi]

BBC radar suggests snow over Barnsley at 9am and 12pm but its going to have to sink south for that to happen.

[boweswinter]

didnt expect this much.........

[Snowy White]

Does the radar suggest any southward movement of the front or is it just keeping west?

[Imp81]

After leaving the Mrs house darn sarf well near Newark and seeing it covering over and then getting back to the scunny area seeing it clear altogether i was somewhat disappointed but have woken up to find a wet but white covering of 3cm here

[4wd]

27mm of rain recorded from this event so far and it will all have been snow above 1000 feet.

Intermittent slushy cover here.

[sunny scunny]

Quite a bit of snow around here this morning, which is a nice surprise.
