Far North Of England - Weather Chat

Looks promising for the toon.

Looks promising for the toon.

I think the southern side of the Toon is heading for that gap tbh.

[Geordiesnow]

I think N Newc upwards should get a decent amount from this. The only place that looks dodgy is Newc/Gateshead I think.

 

From what I can tell most places from Durham south have got about an inch, though if it fell earlier, it's probably slushy on big roads/pavements now.

 

It does look like that in all honesty, could just fit nicely in that gap although showers are sometimes hard to predict as they can backbuild or gaps can be closed up before you know it.

Got very light snow here but can still see the moon,lol.

[gordonm]

I'm under that clump that's come off keilder and it's decent snow coming down down.

[Snowstorm1]

2.2c so slowly decreasing think I'll wait till it's under two before I sleep more comfy haha what we do for snow ...

[Airedalejoe]

Snowing here which has left a dusting...can't see anything on the radar!

that clump has my name on it, hope it delivers the goods

[Nice Ice Babe]

Well I think we (south tyne side) are in the firing line.  But can still see the lights right out west.  When they go dark - something is coming. will keep you posted

Can't be far from you now.....

[Snowmaggedon]

Oh no, it's melting...hope this isn't it for tonight, we want more we want more!

[doggy123]

nothing yet can still see the moon, needs to head south

[Snowstorm1]

Oh no, it's melting...hope this isn't it for tonight, we want more we want more!

Try not to worry down to 2.1c now here it is slowly decreasing and with further showers throughout the night we should be ok at least we have a covering to protect if it starts to rapidly melt then panick haha

Might just scrape a dusting, at least the showers are now making it to the coast, but don't expect to see scantily clad women sliding down the bigg market just yet.

The wind has really picked up here and it's hard to see how big the flakes are as they are moving too fast.

Edit: unreal, the gap has widened around toon centre and is actually moving around the centre.

grrr shows you how much I know - those hills over Hexham have gobbled up my snow. grrrr.

Don't believe it, the huge shower to the North of T and W just got shunted to the coast to the North, and looks like missing us now, unbelieveable

[gazzac69]

a few flakes falling now, that clump is bypassing the Toon to the North

absolute nightmare although there is stuff behind it

[Freezing-Point]

Cloud thickening here and wind rising.  A few flakes coming down......

[gordonm]

Doggy, are you not getting any? IVe got a very light covering and it's still coming down

[Freezing-Point]

It looks like the larger clump behind the small one which has passed to the north will do the same.  I am off to bed.  NW westerlys are utter rubbish.

i can just about make out a few flakes blowing around, send some south fella

[I Cumbria Marra I]

Lucky people, nowt on the west coast.

[Bridgehill Blizzard]

Blizzards in Consett again and wind is really whipping up the snow. Will be bad by morning at this rate.

The 6 Years I've been on this forum I always thought the term 'snow-shield' was a joke, showers going south and now passing north... someone has it in for us Tynesiders
