Far north and northeast of England weather discussion

[Willitwontit]

We ended up getting a decent dumping yesterday morning, perfectly timed just before the going to work rush hour. Roads were absolute carnage. So glad I work from home

-6.7c in darlo overnight, giving one of the coldest nights of the year

[Willitwontit]

Baltic this morning. Everything frozen solid and currently -5 in the sunshine.

I wonder if any of the  snow currently showing on radar over Cumbria will get across the hills to the N.E. today

My lowest temp recorded overnight was a perishing -7.5c

Don't like all the speculation in the winter thread but the Met O is backtracking slightly about the longevity of the less colder air lasting, I think we are in for a very interesting December.

White Christmas anyone?

[gazzac69]

It  would be great to see a white Xmas, was the last one back in 2010?

Not sure I want to listen to the met office warnings, other than stating the obvious Ice, yesterdays warnings were way off the mark, 

loved to be proved wrong though.

Assume the warning for the snow is related to this system coming in from the west, think it will be slightly north for me so ice it is.

Think it was gazza, usually mild most years but I just have a little inkling this year will be different, hope I am right.

Like others have mentioned I can't believe there wasn't a warning for fog anywhere. We drove from Manchester late last night and from Leeds to just before Northallerton it was ridiculous.  It wasn't great on the way down either during rush hour. It took us nearly 4 hours because people don't drive to the conditions. I'll shut up now before this turns into a proper middle aged grumpy man rant!

Typical BBC.

A bit of snow for parts of the sarf, and they don't bother to show the rest of the UK

[mathematician]

For the BBC the north doesn't even exist. Nothing new...

[Summer Sun]

Some snow starting to edge in from the west

[NorthEastSnow]

Durham looks to be in a good spot for snow. 
 

[Phil Blake]

Light snow in Chester le street 

[Summer Sun]

That snow in Cumbria has caught the met office out.

They've rushed out an amber warning now.

[Cloud 10]

A few flakes falling here now,surprised any precip. has made it across this far.

[Summer Sun]

A few flakes of snow in the air here in Darlo

[Nick123]

Not surprised it’s been non stop snow for them all morning, looking at the Keswick cams it looks fantastic there. 

[Summer Sun]

That snow in Cumbria reminds me of 2010 here when we got the lake effect snow

[NorthEastSnow]

Yes quite jealous I must admit, they’ve hit the jackpot this time.

Still -1.5c in Darlo

Looking like an ice day
