Yorkshire and E England regional discussion

[Mark Bayley]

Precipitation strengthening quite a bit over Leeds / Bradford area. Good timing as well. Slushy coverings starting to build on the pavement. 

[ChezWeather]

Can see the snow/rain line on the 06 AROME for tonight, anyone East of the Trent will struggle for snow if this comes off

[boyzie]

Flakes are much bigger now. We have a lovely covering already.

[Harsh Climate]

Radar doing my head in, nice little error on my location

[Hatewarmth]

Am I right in saying that the precipitation is going to pivot then get heavier as the winds pick up as the radar has it clearing from the south west

[Premiere Neige]

BBC weather app is useless. It has sleet all day for my location but it's done nothing but snow since I got up at 6.45am. However the snow is very wet. Heavy enough to provide a covering on grass but not on roads or pavements yet at my altitude which is 22m or 71m asl (depending which app you believe). Sky seems a little brighter than it has all morning

Afternoon., well after a morning of cold rain in Cleethorpes there’s now flakes of snow mixed in with it all. Strange as all the updates we’re showing my part of the world just having rain all day. 
 

cheers

Had the same here, it's marginal so we'll get the odd flake mixed in, unfortunately we will probably remain the wrong side of marginal until the precipitation clears, maybe a bit of wet snow on the back edge.

[LeeSnowFan]

Got a really good covering here now paths roads etc couple cm at least and best is still to come!! 

[Mark Bayley]

Have about 4cm of snow. Definitely a bit of dripping (temp 0.3c) though its still coming down faster than it can melt. Radar suggests current intensity should last into the mid afternoon

[peter101]

After cold rain most of the morning it’s starting to turn into light sleet/snow here in York

[Paul_1978]

Wakefield here - just snow on grass verges. Roads and pavements completely clear as of 12:05pm

Absolutely.  Set off for a short dog walk round the village.
Snowing lightly for a few mins, then turned to sleet.
Rain on the way back.  Not pleasant to be out I.M.O.

Yep, its thoroughly unpleasant. Just plain old rain/sleet here now too. Temp is 2.2C and dewpoint 0.4C.

[Schnee]

Leeds city centre is more or less clear on the paths and roads, for what I can see. Looking on the cameras at home in Crossgates and it is sticking to some surfaces but depths are minimal.

12.16 is the time the sun is the highest, so daylight should diminish from now on, hopefully helping marginal conditions. 

[Winter Cold]

We're at risk of clearing from the south west in South Yorkshire at the moment, the gap is definitely getting closer on the radar.....

I just can't wait to get to 3pm now when it hopefully peps up again and the sun is going down...

[ChezWeather]

Finally easing off here, a decent covering now, is that heavier stuff over N Wales heading our way?

[Love Snow]

New warning out for snow Saturday evening

An okay covering on the grass but no effort to settle on roads etc. Lightened up now.

[Sara_south_yorks]

We still looking at heavier stuff later? 

Seems to be brightening up out there and becoming lighter. Daughter school closing in next half hour though. But sons high school still open and staying ope  to normal time at the mo

[Liam Taylor]

for Doncaster later

[LeeSnowFan]

Back out with dog if this is now can't wait til later

[terrier]

Radar looks meh. Has the front moved through quicker than thought. Or is it due to pivot back round later.
