    Well timed snow showers earlier for my lunchtime walk on the Quayside
  2. Alex95
    Looks like Newcastle will miss out, unless some of those other showers finally make it inland. Looks decent for Sunderland and Washington though
  3. Alex95
    Seems to be quite a bit of activity again but the flow is getting slacker so the showers might struggle to come onshore now, at least until Tuesday. Looks like Sunderland is due one more at least this evening though

    Decent snow in the Ingram Valley today

    There's a dusting of snow in Newcastle this morning as well. There's more significant activity in the North Sea pushing south so I think we could see some heavier showers as the day goes on. That matches with the precipitation charts yesterday showing the heaviest showers around the middle of today. There's some slightly milder air mixed in with the band that sat over Scotland yesterday so I just hope it doesn't turn to sleet later if the heavier stuff hits us.

    Yep and there's another one following in behind! A few flakes just starting in Newcastle now, the showers seem to be pepping up as they come inland
  7. Alex95
    Decent covering on the Durham coast traffic cams now after that shower
  8. Alex95
    Slowly does it!
  9. Alex95
    Yeah I think that's probably about right. The precipitation charts seem to show the showers coming a bit more onshore tomorrow morning so presumably the low is expected to drift slightly southwards overnight.

    A few showers are drifting into Northumberland now, there's quite a sharp shower showing on the radar just north of Ashington There's a slight onshore wind now so I expect some places near the east coast to get a few showers overnight, although they'll probably not make it far inland given how weak the flow is

    Got a reasonable dusting at Warwick University on the edge of Coventry last night. Hardly anything was settling in Leamington when I left around 2am, so I was quite surprised to see this.

    Grasmere often seems to have more lying snow than Keswick - I assume it must be slightly higher above sea level than surrounding areas
  13. Alex95
    It did in Grasmere, but Keswick was completely clear yesterday in the town
  14. Alex95
    Looks like a decent snowfall in Keswick and Grasmere on the webcams

    It's been a long time since I posted in here, I've been so busy! Drawn back by the prospect of snow... The North East should have a good chance of snow as it's much easier to get convective snow from the North Sea than to rely on frontal snow, as the rest of the country will have to do. Unfortunately I'm heading south tomorrow to go back to university after Christmas - bad timing or what!

    Bit late, but we drove through a fairly big thunderstorm yesterday on the A69 near Hexham with large hail, torrential rain, and fairly frequent lightning. It seemed to die on the radar before it reached Newcastle though!
  17. Alex95
    I can see a flash of lightning every 1-2 minutes to my south west now, it looks very distant, I presume it's from those storms over the south Pennines.
  18. Alex95
    The rain has become quite torrential here.
  19. Alex95
    Torrential rain in Newcastle, the showers are really intensifying as they reach the North East coast. I wouldn't be surprised to see a couple of rogue lightning strikes (and there have been a couple in North Yorkshire).
  20. Alex95
    Some convection happening across the North East again, ahead of the front. Cells popping up near York and in Northumberland at the moment.
  21. Alex95
    Don't speak too soon ... Saturday?
  22. Alex95
    Did anyone else get around 2 minutes of extremely strong wind? There's loads of damage to the trees outside and the garden furniture has blown across the garden. Heavy hail starting here now and the lightning is directly overhead. Can't believe we've had 2 possible supercell storms in one evening. (Or 3, was the first one also suspected supercell?)
  23. Alex95
    Another storm approaching from the south, this one looks like a direct hit, very strong winds now, sounds like a lorry driving past but it just goes on and on!
  24. Alex95
    Best night time lightning display I have seen in the UK. The storms seem to be skirting over the western suburbs of Newcastle, which is perfect as my house has a good view over towards that direction.
  25. Alex95
    Absolutely incredible lightning to my south west, lightning every 1-2 seconds and increasingly loud thunder. The storms to my east off the coast are still fairly impressive too. I think I've only ever seen night storms like this in Florida.
