Bone dry here all day since the rain early this morning. Ill eat my hat if those showers reach here from the west overnight as the BBC forecast suggests.

[Harsh Climate]

Huge flakes settling on 90% of all surfaces including road now . Temperature 0.5C and dropping.

[Mikel Nimbus]

Hi all. Hope you are enjoying the snow up north. I have a request, does anyone have a link to a webcam in or near Halifax? Would be very useful. Cheers

[Cheese Rice]

Whiteout but struggling to properly settle.

[BA Baracus]

Radar looks promising here in next 5-10 mins

What's your thoughts on our chances tonight? Radar shows showers heading in our direction but they disappear or end up south of the humber!!!

[Aiden2012]

Well finally heavy snow and settling now more hail hopefully

No more hail even

[Kentish Snowman in Yorks]

A coating of icing sugar (graupel?) everywhere now after that heavy shower.

The two bands of snow that passed over Leeds and Sheffield have now merged!

Watch out Sc#nthorpe!

Just back home after busy day and evening out drinks / dinner.

Heavy graupal shower now turned in to very heavy snow. Covered up all patches.

No radar look for a few hours so let the continental brews open and we're off. ;-)

Radar looks promising for S and W Yorkshire a good streamer setting up between Sheff and Leeds with the looks of things

Very light dusting here, about 90 mins ago, since then nothing but hail or rain. Feels too mild outside.

[Static Prevails]

Everything is just slightly to the north. There's still all night for us though!

Chances arent great for us this far east. After travelling across the Pennines the showers are weakened before The Wolds kill them off good and proper.

Theres the chance of the odd rogue one making it over but the best chance for us is the northerly at the weekend.

Temp dropping now Rich it won't be long before it comes am only the next hill across from you :-)

[Winter Cold]

The temps are stuggling a bit, crazy how its not getting colder. Were supposed to be in very cold 850s and the snow should cool the air. Just looked at PITS temps and its up to 1.8c now in Sheffield!

Yes mate you should do really well out of the Northerly over there which will be a really nice change for your lot :-)

[Cheese Rice]

Colder air struggles to mix at this level.

[BA Baracus]

Big flash and bang almost overhead!

Sleeting now. Just too warm at the minute at my altitude.

My temperature has now dropped to 0.7c from 1.8c following that heavy shower but it remains to be seen whether it rises again now it has passed through.

[Love Snow]

Lighting boom and a decent covering now a could couple of cm out of this already

[Nick Wall]

I'm sure we just had thunder in Dewsbury......

[Tony Beets]

That was a big boom, heavy snow pellets now!!

[BA Baracus]

More thunder

[Harsh Climate]

Typical, soon as it's cold enough for lying snow, the radar instantly becomes pants! We need activity between the isle of man and cumbria.

Seems to have veered more westerly so mebe slightly more modified air which hopefully will change once it veers more northerly later in the night
