Far north and northeast of England weather discussion

[Tucka20]

We've had snow falling for almost an hour in Whickham. There's a small covering on grass and in cracks in pavements but otherwise just wet on the ground.

[Gizzy]

Nothing here again, frost has lifted from late last night and just damp cold rubbish , as seems to be the norm these days.

Got to say, take out 2018 and there hasn't been much of a winter here for 13 years now, since 2010.

That band still holding together looking good for higher elevations in our region in the next hour or so 

Not expecting anything much here 

[Neve]

bleaching it down in Morpeth. it's been snowing for over an hour now and there's a good inch on the ground now. 

[Boro Snow]

A slight covering here in darlo, but that band to the north is getting thinner so not expecting much

Good to hear, maybe we may see a few flakes in the next hour.

[NorthEastSnow]

Just been some sleet/snow here with very light precipitation so if that band holds together we got a chance 

[Jarrow Posh]

Moderate/Heavy snow in South Tyneside now

[NorthEastSnow]

Does sound like it’s heading south to here. Let’s hope the snow shield isn’t in force again.

Maybe i threw the toys out of the pram too quickly, snowing moderate here now, slight covering quite quickly so ground obviously very cold.

Are you getting much on the coast seabreeze 

[NorthEastSnow]

The radar shows the smallest thinnest band of showers coming down this way, doubt it will amount to much mind. 

[gazzac69]

stopped here, left about 1/2" on the ground - nice while it lasted current temp  -1.2c

Yes I did the dog walk, must remember my gloves.  Very light here now but got a slight covering.

Am I right in thinking, looking at the radar, that the main band hasn't reached us yet

Not yet but it's such a small band of showers I would rule out a usual fizzle here. 

It is now currently snowing though and looks to be the heaviest stuff around 10:15.

Yep it does look to be breaking up a bit as it makes it way down, let's see what 10-11am brings, here's hoping we all get to see at least a centimeter or two, doesn't look too promising for much more during this cold snap.

[seabreeze86]

Band looks to be breaking up , shame as it’s obviously cold enough for snow

GFS looks much more promising for showers this week and it nailed this band of snow 4 days ago

[NorthEastSnow]
