got a feeling this could be a bit of a let down to be honest debating whether staying up to 12 will be worth it

[Andy_]

The wind really gets up when a shower is approaching, very powerful gust against the window then a round of hail!

yes I see them. I will be in bed by then. I think there will be a few cms by morning with drifting.

The showers come and go really, the last one to hit Tyneside really intensified as it hit land and gave that hailstorm, followed by a quick covering of snow.

Two nice heavy showers there.

[peterf]

completely covered here in no time at all -4.3c and falling.loads of potential way out to see as the night moves on also.

[Snowmaggedon]

Someone give a shove up the backsides of those showers further North and divert them to Teesside. There's been no precipitation here since morning apart from the odd snow pellet. Even if it does snow tonight, it'll have to be quite heavy to lay as its quite windy.

[Alex95]

I'll be surprised if there's not a few cm at least by the morning.

drop a location in Mick, otherwise nobody knows where you are referring to.

And here come the sub -13c uppers...

Sub -14c uppers for most of tomorrow and then the less cool uppers arrive (sub -8c for all of Monday night and Tuesday as well with a slack N/NE'ly).

Bloody cold!

[peterf]
