4.4c to the 11th, 2.1c below the 1981-2010 average.
The warm up begins today but looking at GFS it may not last long with a cold PM shot for next weekend.

Great Pics mate!
Currently the coldest its been all winter at the moment at -0.6C with freezing fog, after 7.8mm of rain sleet and snow melt its gonna be slippy in the morning!
-
Already 0.3C here this evening and after todays 7.8mm of rain/sleet/snow its going to be very icy out!
-
4.9c to the 8th here which is 1.6c below the 1981-2010 average.
Todays mean is looking like being between 1 to 1.5c so a large drop on for tomorrow.
-
Currently 0.3C and freezing over which is todays minimum after a low of 0.4c overnight.
7.8mm of rain, sleet and wet snow fell throughout the day which led to a brief coating snow around 7am.

Well I've had rain, sleet and snow this morning which settled temporarily around 7am, quickly melted though!
Nearby villages in the Howardian Hills to my NW with high elevation saw an inch or two this morning.
After that I drove to the Yorkshire Dales where there was around 6 inches above 350m, came back via Sutton Bank in the North York Moors where there was around 3 inches of snow.
Here's some pics:
Howardian Hills above 150m:
Yorkshire Dales above 350m:
Sutton Bank at around 300m:

Looks like the band may pivot further North than expected. The radar return does not look like the MetO prediction rainfall before I went to bed.
Also we have some sleet here!

Must admit, I also cant stand it! Small symbols and its all a mess, much preferred the old one with nice large numbers and symbols with the dark background.
They may of added a video forecast but what happened to the warning maps and also all the other parameters that came with the map as well as rainfall?
I'm still using the old one which apparently will stop working soon.
Sorry for the rant but nice to see I'm not the only one that hates it!

i heard from a friend that there was a slight covering of snow on top of the North Yorkshire Moors ........can anyone confirm that ?
Yes I was up on Blakey Ridge last night at 400m and there was a very slight covering, wet snow sticking to cold surfaces such as cars/grass, nothing to write home about but always good to see.

5.5C to the 5th here, 1.0C below the 1981-2010 average.
Further drops look likely in the coming days before a rise later in the week.

Hi Vizzy , I will be watching the next Euro4 output closely . How is " Storm Force Lewis " nowadays ? He was a bit of a character i recall.
Haha yeh hes alright, busy as ever I reckon as hes still running U K W F, do miss his input on here but to be fair the last few winters we've not had much to chat about.
Fingers crossed all of Yorks/Lincs gets a pasting this winter.

i wouldn't rule out some wet snow for the North Yorkshire Moors on Sat night judging by some of the recent forecasts !
Just been talking to Lewis about this, it appears some warmer uppers have appeared along the east coast over the last few model updates which may scupper the chance of snow up there. MetO still bullish, we shall see.

5.3C to the 2nd, 1.2C below the 1981-2010 average. Latest GFS looks to keep temps below average untill the 9th, and as BFTV states above by then we could be 3C below average.

I was rather confident of seeing some white stuff over the tops of the Moors this weekend however the models have shifted overnight bringing a shortwave associated with the main low moving eastwards into Northern Europe closer to the east coast meaning upper 850s are around -2/3c rather than -4/5c, this would IMO be too warm for snow even at 1400ft.
However this morning reading the BBC/MetOs forecast text and also watching their latest video forecast they mention snow accumulations possible especially over the North York Moors
.
Here's the Sunday morning chart from the latest NMM showing what would be too warm upper 850s to be conducive of snowfall even at 1400ft, as from experience -4c of less is required.
Am I missing something or am I just a better forecaster than the BBC/MetO for my local area? I would love to be proven wrong but we shall see...

Another narrow miss last night after a low of 0.1c, 4 ground frosts so far this Autumn and its already 1.8c at frosty out there now.
Can we make it below freezing tonight? Cloud looks to increase later in the night so I'm not sure
-
Currently 1.6°C. After a cloudy start the sun came out and there's been sunny intervals most of the day with a fresh North wind. Max Temp 10.2°C and minimum an hour or so ago at 1.2°C
-
October finished at 10.0c here, 0.2c above the 1981-2010 average. Year to date we are 0.2c above average also.
-
Currently 8.3c after a min of 5.3c, earlier fog has disappeared after the wind has picked up from the N.
-
Keeping a close eye on that Col, put my winter tyres on today so its just a case of seeing where the snow line will be.
I would imagine with uppers around -4/5c would have the snow line between 300-400mtrs, however with the temp gradient between the warm North Sea and the upper air temps is likely to create some heavy showers that could locally bring the snow line down.

I live 534ft asl in North Yorkshire .and studied charts for 30years .my subaru forester is booked in for winter tyres normally I wait till December to have them fitted. Off topic sorry. But I'm not going to underestimate these set of charts. I've been monitoring the situation for several days now.
Hopefully they will get a workout soon, do you live in the North York Moors? If so ECM shows the chance of wintry showers to high ground in that area next week, GFS not so keen. My snow tyres are on standby just in case

hi vizzy - I replied here as to not clog the CET thread up
I used this: http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/climate/gbyxgmvts
Either pick a station that is close to you, or use a regional average. I went with the regional average to pit my stats against. Bournemouth and Swanage are both 9 miles from me, but Swanage tends to be warmer than here during Winter months, and cooler in the Summer, but Bournemouth tends to get higher temps in Summer and lower temps in Winter, so that's the reason why I went with a region instead.
Hope that helps?!
Hi mate thanks for the reply, I've used those maps to work out roughly my monthly CET mean between 1981-2010 for my location.
However I am interested in daily mean temps, for example I have estimated that November CET mean is 6.8c for my location, but obviously it is likely to be warmer to start the month (8-9c) and then cooler towards the end of the month (5-6c) which would obviously balance the month out to finishing value around 6.8c.
I was just wondering if there was any data out there to show daily averages throughout the year, the MetO will obviously have this data for there stations, but I find whats available fairly limited.
Cheers bro.
-
Not sure if right thread to ask but does anyone know where I can find daily averages for my nearest MetO official weather station, if they are even available? Thanks
-
Leconfield 16c also so must of been localised, unless direct sunlight touched the sensor
-
9.8c to the 28th, bang on the 1981-2010 average. Likely to finish around 10/10.1c by month end.

Not a bad PM shot for mid November with uppers around -4/5°C at times. That would suggest the snowline around 300m, high ground across the Yorkshire Dales/Pennines may see a covering by the end of week.
