Just been down to the end of the garden to check temp…-5c current recording.

HOWEVER, I’ve just seen a UFO!! Disregard the green/blue reflection of the moon on the camera lens….watch the small orange object. It looked like a flame, like one of those lit lanterns but it moved much faster than a lantern would be ‘floating’. Any ideas? Could it be a meterorite??

 

Interesting !  It would be silent I guess or you would have known it was an aircraft.
Did it speed up at one point ?
I saw something similar a few years back.  One light came along horizontal (thought it was the ISS at first) then we spotted another
rise up vertically .. we watched amazed as they met together .. and then they zoomed off away in different directions at
the most incredible speeds.  Never been able to work out what we had witnessed. It happened on the night my father in law
died.  So odd.  
Thanks for the video.

It’s a spy balloon from the south model thread trying to send waves so the system stays south

I’m so unsure what’s going to happen do you guys think I’ll get rain? Pocklington doesn’t have much height

[Cal]

Some may get one or two beefy showers moving in off the N

 

Sea, animated met office radar shows this quite well for East Yorks, N n E Lincs moving through into N n W Yorks late morning rime.

Ooooo showers incoming from the sea

[Jeremy Shockey]

A few flakes in Hull right now

[reef]

Just got caught in a heavy one through Preston/Bilton and it was snow flakes/grains. Its odd as they're moving ENE but the wind is currently SW!

[Aiden2012]

Waiting for it to get near here and die

[Craigers]

Decent lows last night!

[The PIT]

Well today shows a push further north with a snow to rain for us Thursday  then back to Snow overnight into Friday.

Barnsley could end up with 20cm+ at this rate!

I agree, my first thought would be one of those (should be illegal) tealight balloons/lanterns. Might travel fast in the wind, though there was no wind at ground level last night, the temperature difference between the burning candle and the air temperature could propel it faster?  Certainly the candles would burn longer, and in cold would ‘lift higher’ 

 

Yes, I seem to be in our ‘local frost pocket  ). -7.1° last night, so not as cold as I feared it would get down to. Currently -4.2°

The UKV and other hi-res models show today's rain/sleet/snow mix heading into the south of the county. I think some will be at risk of snow from the bigger showers coming inland from the North Sea, too. There is quite a lot going on, it must be said!

[LeeSnowFan]

Barnsley always seems to do well from snow events so fingers crossed for today tomorrow and Friday

[mhielte]

It will be interesting to see updates to the warning areas today, assuming there will be.
