Yay moderate snow in Cram at the minute

Nice heavy snow in Cramlington at the moment massive flakes to visibility right down

Got a nice heavy shower passing through Cramlington at the minute looks great with hardly any wind

Nice line of showers coming in now looks like there gonna make landfall near Blyth so might actually get some snow today yay

Hopefully the winds are due to start moving more to a NE direction this evening around 7-8pm

Looking at tomorrows models and data just looks like de-ja-vu from today as the cap seems like its staying put so shallow convection again

Here is the Skew-t sounding for today for Newcastle not to bad of a cap but it kept all the showers shallow

The problem we’ve got at the moment is theres a layer of cloud (circled) we’re our showers are developing, the cloud layer is inhibiting the showers until there clear of it and move west plus theres still a cap over us at around 5000ft hope that makes sense lol

Proper snow shower this time nice and heavy

Nice and heavy graupel shower here visibility is right down

Its just a case of waiting at the minute cant see it lasting to long

Looking through the charts and models for this morning theres a Cap on over our region at the moment keeping the convection shallow (cap at around 4-5000ft) u can see this when the showers die out leaving a cloudbase around there good thing is when this cap goes towers should reach a height of around 23000ft (cumulonimbus)

We’ve still been getting graupel in the showers here in Cramlington had a few heavy ones but have died down for now
