honestly mate i saw it yesterday aswell

I believe you!! I was on a wind up.

[Cloud 10]

What drugs you on?

I think its the butterfly who must be on drugs!

Constant light snow here all morning and a thin covering off last nights snow.

[recklessabandon]

Some convection happening now out there I think, intensity and size of hail/graupel increasing. I think the 'warm' March sun is heating the surface enough between the showers to kick things off as it were.....should see some good local accumulations later this afternoon/after sunset if this continues.

[Snowmaggedon]

A good beefy snow shower now in M'BRO

[Summer Sun]

Snow is starting in darlo again now its quite powdery again

[tynevalleysnow]

Had 3-4 inches since last night here so now around 10 inches deep. How come bbc forecast last night and early this morning had no mention of any snowfall here even though the meto had a warning out

[NickR]

Not much new activity in the N sea now.. does anyone know if it's due to pep up again later or tomorrow?

After dark tonight I'd say

deja-vu to last night i would think considering the warning again doesnt start till 8pm

[Alex95]

Had some decent snow showers today, not much of a covering though.

[Summer Sun]

It looks like this strong nagging easterly wind will start to ease from tomorrow so hopefully this bitter wind chill should ease

Both of Darlo's weather stations seem well off today

One of them is showing 3.0c

and the other is showing 4.0c

Both are miles out at best its 2c

Any chance of a weather warning for accumulations of more than 1-2cm later in the week? The current warnings are an embarrassment, fair enough if it was London but we are Northerners (hard as nails)

I think tomorrow could see the peak in these light snow showers from the north sea during the next 48 hours by Friday things should be quieter once an area of high pressure edges down from the north leading to a cool but dry Easter weekend

[Alex95]

Heavy shower of snow and grauple blowing through now.

[Boro Snow]

well that bbc weather report on the news channel didnt build me with much confidence, nothing tonight or tommorrow

Yeah always difficult to predict these showers of the north sea though it can come to life at anytime in these situations, parts of NE Scotland look like there seeing some heavier precipitation currently

Still what ever it does we aren't looking at anything significant maybe a cm or 2 at best before it melts during the day

Same here nothing is falling all quiet so far

[Cloud 10]

Light/moderate snow now with decent sized flakes settling on frozen surfaces.

Just a typical spring night at the moment.

[North East Blizzard]

Pretty heavy snow right now!

[smogonthetyne]

Any ideas about the weekend?

[tynevalleysnow]

Heavy here and very windy
