Will certain people please stop saying ignore the troll!! I Knw my meteorological stuff! Right now the North Sea is not producing much! Stop hope casting.

You sure?

[Harsh Climate]

Such a different type of snow compared to that crap snow we've had through out the winter from the west.

[Adam lufc]

There you go folks.... So much for the troll!! Latest bbc forecast- occasional snow showers tonight, with the odd cm here n there!! Tomorrow- mostly cloudy and dry. Do we all love easterlies so much!! Hmm not so sure now.

Yorkshire & Humber

Headline:

Cold with snow showers, and a biting easterly wind.

This Evening and Tonight:

Snow showers will continue throughout the night with accumulations increasingly likely, especially over eastern facing high ground. It will feel exceptionally cold in the brisk easterly wind, with ice an additional hazard. Minimum Temperature -4 °C.

Monday:

Further snow showers, tending to form in bands. Some bright and sunny spells are likely between the showers but the northeasterly wind maintaining the very cold feel throughout. Maximum Temperature 1 °C.

Read again mate

[Harsh Climate]

Shower still going strong here, suprising from looking at the radar.

[Thundery wintry showers]

A relatively dry slot is slowly sinking southwards so there is likely to be a period of a few hours when we don't see many showers (later the further south you are) before the zone showers that affected eastern Scotland today heads south.

[Kentish Snowman in Yorks]

As far as I have seen nobody has been predicting our region to be buried in snow just some shower activity some of it heavy that could produce a few centimetres here and there.

Some hysteria coming from the usual suspect tonight!

The windchill and depth of cold is the bigger story in my opinion with almost unprecedented cold for so late in the season.

Anyway we shall see. I think there could be a few surprises snow wise for some during tonight and tomorrow.

Yeh same here. Didn't here anything on the conservatory roof.

The snow is extremely granular and blowing arond like confetti in the bitter wind on the patio

[Barry12]

How much cm's are people predicting for Leeds?

Radars not looking that good at the moment

[Grimsby Snow Lover]

Quite large flakes blowing about in the wind here at the moment. Currently we have a dusting on the grass/fence etc but nothing on the roads or paths yet.

We haven't much hope of any Snow with winds from many other directions.

[Barry12]

[Arnie22]

Heavy Snow shower he has left everything covered - lovely large flakes.

[Harsh Climate]

Nothing personally!!!!

Yep it's not looking good, with the way the radar is at the moment it looks like the whole eastern side of the UK will struggle to get any appreciable accumulations. Still plenty of time for the radar to pop up though.

HI TWS,

im still learning but from this link scrollong quickly between say 3pm this afternoon and to the present time, i see high clouds racing west to east over our region and at the same time drifting slowly south..... is this indicative of the dry layer you are referring to?

i also notice the endless train of showers being developed between denmark and norway ( norwegian sea i think ) are developing higher cloud tops now... is this it correct to think these will be penetrating our region overnight ?

sos forgot topost the link http://www.yr.no/satellitt/europa_animasjon.html

I think there was something wrong with the rain today radar, seems strange how on 6:15 all the precipitation across the UK simultaneously became light, then on 7:30 became heavy again. The snow shower I had about an hour ago was a lot heavier than shown on the radar!

Looking at the link what you are referring to is the jet-stream. The clouds you are seeing are jet-streaks that show where the jet-stream is. I am pretty certain I am right on this, however, if I am wrong, I am sure someone on here will put me right

HI HC,

Don't know about Rain Today but NW radar is still showing a steady stream of moderate showers coming in from the coast and this ties-in nicely with what I am seeing out of my window.

Keep the faith!

Needs to pop up a bit though, as normal looks good then fizzles out

Can't believe we have all got over excited over a bit of snow!!!!!!!!!!
