If I was chasing and not working I'd be staying put here and seeing what pans out. Good links all directions from this area (M18/M1/m180/m62) so fairly easy to move.
If anyone does head this way plan around avoiding the A1 north of Doncaster, horrendous roadworks will kill you.
Maybe 3-4cm or something like that here which is more than expected. Good enough to build a few small snowpeoplefor the kids. Thawing very quick here though with a lot of standing water. It was already super slippy in the slush this morning.
It's going to be so marginal for parts of South Yorkshire, could be some very big differences in these parts.
Snowed all morning here mostly with a brief sleet spell but all surfaces free of snow. I think we'll be too far east and low down.
My poor little boy has still had no chance to play in snow, shame for him.
Be good to see how it pans out next day or so. Suspect we'll see mostly sleet and rain here, we do struggle for snow in Doncaster, just too low down.
Will be fun in the peaks though.
It's going to be difficult to sustain much snow on the ground in March if it does fall at any point, certainly at my level anyway, maybe less so a bit mor elevated.
I'd rather we got loads of snow or none at all personally, but I'm no big snow lover
-3 days for me. I suspect had my mother not travelled north to give birth with family members around (military father was away), that it wouldn't have been pleasant for her on the south coast. Maybe I'd have been born in the storm?
Funny that things like this go on to define your life, this and black Monday will never escape me.
Up in the south of Scotland this evening and the rain has been outrageously heavy with plenty hail mixed in too and a couple of loud cracks of thunder. Quite impressive overall.
Agreed, been watching that way for a while but nothing doing. Can see the odd flash more to the nw though, guess it's the stuff over Lancashire. It will never fail to amaze me how far away you can see a storm at night.
Ironically after a poor year for storms we went away for the night last night and missed it.
It's slightly scary. It's 30c here where I am on holiday and have needed medication for the chest. 35+ is too hot, so to think what it could be at home next week without aircon does worry me a little as a parent of two young kids.
But alas as ever we cannot control the weather just deal with it.
