Yorkshire and Lincolnshire - Weather Chat

I doubt it. It works the other way when you have an E/NE flow, they die as they try to cross over the Pennines. Seen it so many times.

 

You was saying? Right about me though

[Wilkybarkid]

A very pleasant light covering and thunder snow (never seen that before). Need it to pep up again. Great to hear it's making it right through to the East coast. 

[Richard Lake]

Stopped here for now.

[Love Snow]

Thought it was worth a post but this was lightning strikes earlier and when many witnessed Thundersnow.

Hope I've done this correctly :-)

Heavy in S26, J31 of M1. Road / Cars covered in under 5 mins. Lights keep flickering too, not seen any lightning yet

[reef]

Very similar conditions to here mate!

Glad to see you've finally got a covering. Unfortunately here the wait goes on as it was too wet during the shower that hit us and apart from on car windscreens nothing laid.

Hopefully weekend will be better!

[Winter Cold]

Well after a great 30 mins, it looks like the whole region is going to be clear of activity for a bit. If skies clear at least it will drop temps and freeze what weve got.

 

I hope we do get the trough late in the night and things keep going later. Tomorrow looks cold at least but Friday is a worry. Dont want to loose what weve got lol, until it turns colder again Saturday. I only want to add to it

It's stopped here in East dene???

Snow stopped. Temperature rising and signs of snow melt with some drip dripping so I am calling it a night.

Lets see what tomorrow brings...

[Love Snow]

Bedtime me thinks..

Light snow shower at present and increasingly gusty winds. Temp 0.8c. Lights keep flickering too.

Hope to wake up to a good covering but hey this is just the start of another hopefully cracking cold spell. ;-))

[tayzi]

Highways agency saying a few accidents and roads closed with the conditions

Good luck to all tonight

Interesting shower just developing west of leeds, seems to be heading north east against the general flow.

[Sara_south_yorks]

no snow now here, what covering we did have is slowly melting, radar looks rubbish, going to go to bed soon as i really dont think kids will have a snow day tomoz so that means me getting up nice and early lol, fingers crossed for surprises through the early hours though  

[Paul_1978]

Had a few minor showers in Wakefield, and a bit of a covering but now melting.

Not really much to get excited about to be honest.

This whole spell will be nothing to write home about I suspect. No prolonged snow forecast, just showers which won't end up amounting to much.

Sadly no Feb 1991 on the horizon.

[Hurricane Andrew]

Very heavy snow here the moment look like winter wounderland outside now 

[Harsh Climate]

Things look to be slowly picking up now, the snow just after midnight for north/west yorkshire still looks on.

Snowing now as I speak.

[Just Before Dawn]

Yep, our two year wait is over. Drove back from Lincoln about half an hour ago and it was surprisingly tricky.

[PMPhotography]

Finally!

 

First snowfall for 2 years! 

Funnily, hardly owt on the radar, yet enough to give a nice dusting. 

Temp 0.7C, Dew -0.3 so close but close enough.  

 

Radar going quiet now though.

Well after last years awful winter i think the charts for the next 6 days or so are looking excellent. I've witnessed thundersnow for the first time tonight so it's definitely an excellent start to the cold spell here.

[tayzi]

Happy watching guys..off to bed up at 6.30 

[Barry12]

Sadly no Feb 1991 on the horizon.

 

But these are very rare events, it's like being disappointed every winter because it's not a repeat of 1962/63.

[Static Prevails]

Ridiculously heavy snow here and we finally have a covering.

[sunny scunny]

Heavy snow again now.
