Tell them to get the train... would be madness to try m62 in these conditions!
-
Yes apparently a snow plough has got stuck!
-
How far North will the band of snow get today? At 7am the northern edge was Kettering. At 9am it's now Leicester. Slow progress, but could hit the region this afternoon if it doesn't fizzle out.
-
Radar fading now as winds swing from more South easterly direction. Had far more snow than imagined earlier this week.
-
Neighbour set off to work at 630. Struggled up road. Has now returned after getting stuck on a very slight incline. Waste of time attempting to go anywhere.
-
The calendar weather didn't show anything on his map. The trouble is they are reliant on computer models which have proved useless with showers. They need some human input which sadly is lacking.
-
Yellow warnings until Saturday for most of the region. Easterly winds into next week. I'd imagine snow on most days.
-
Woke up to blizzards. Loads more snow, drifting, giant icicles. Radar still looks loaded with snow. Great day indeed!
-
Yes, they seem to be decaying as they reach further inland. Still lots of snow around but maybe not as many mini blizzards.
-
Next round incoming! Should hopefully be another hour of snow with this band of showers.
-
Just re-reading the yellow warnings from earlier valid now and tomorrow... they are for 5 to possibly 15cm on each day. So conceivably met office are warning of 30 cm for weds/Thurs in the yellow area. I hadn't realised this earlier so we shouldn't be surprised at the continuous showers. Good times!
-
Is this better ....one quick big dollop of snow, or maybe like the ecm and have a more southerly low and an extra week of easterly winds and showers? Not sure which id pick, would love 40-50cm in one go, but do like the idea of prolonged cold.
-
Bit of a dry gap upcoming for Kirklees area. That stream of showers near Selby looks promising with some farms radar reflections indicating heavier bursts.
-
All signs of movement on roads and pavements have now disappeared under fresh snow. Ice covered in snow everywhere, this is going to lay for days and be treacherous. -5C here with what looks like quite a bit more snow to come.
-
Looks like there could be more on the way too. Good night of radar watching ahead.
-
Wow, proper arctic conditions!
-
Blob incoming.... blizzard here now. Can't see more than a few metres down the street.
-
I am less concerned now the wind direction has changed slightly. There is also evidence of showers developing in the empty area, see met office radar below....
-
Your house is on fire?!
-
South Leeds yes then kirklees
-
Looks a direct hit for Kirklees
-
I don't care about warnings anymore. Seems when an Amber is issued the chance of extreme weather decreases!
-
Just been for a walk. Absolutely deadly on pavements. Ice everywhere. Roads not too bad but I could barely stand on doorways.
-
Radar pepping up again over North sea. Good news for the region!
-
I think we need it to be more North easterly to get the best result. Not sure what is forecast.
