Far North Of England - Weather Chat

[smogonthetyne]

Ha ha, not the six foot drifts I may have made you think, but I think there will be plenty of showers. We have a very favourable position.

Drive the five or so miles to work in Thornaby there is nothing. Mine the only car in the car park with a good covering of snow

Anyway hope we all get a few inches

[Freezing-Point]

The wind direction explains why N.Yorks are getting the showers.   -0.2c here.

nothing for darlo tonight not in a good position for the current wind direction more a coastal thing, tommorrow might be a better day for us further inland and lets hope tonights ECM verifies, current temp 1.2c

[NickR]

Any change of wind direction forecast?

[jason75]

well been sat watching the radar which was showing nothing over me then i look outside,its snowing and its white over

[NL]

Moderate snowfall right here on the coast and settling everywhere now. Where the snow had melted earlier has now frozen and the snow is settling quite readily.

If that little blob of cloud just above my location can produce snow as much as what Ive just seen fall those showers out in the North sea should dump a few cm, thats if they can keep together as they make landfall.

Snow just starting now. This could be good for anyone who is under the path of this narrow band.

true... looks like Sunderland is more in the firing line, though as it pushes south.

[Geordiesnow]

Just shows how localised the showers are when I got nothing here yet Washington got snowfall. 

 

The slow nature of the showers coupled with the low dewpoints and dry ground could mean that there could be some surprises by morning time. 

 

Any snowfall tonight for me would be a bonus, still think tomorrow evening/night into Wednesday got some potential mind aslong as the winds stays off shore. 

[garylaverick]

Hopefully we will see more showers packing in and merging during the night. Stopped for now here.

Dusting of snow here after that last shower 

[seabreeze86]

Just drove back from Boro where there was a decent snow shower giving a covering, now back in Redcar where there is nothing, the dew point is to high at the moment.   

[JP1972]

Dry here.

 

Obviously.

[lizmartin1981]

Covering of snow in jarrow, drove through hebburn to bill Quay to pick the bairn up from scouts and there's nothing in either place

[topsweep1506]

Dry here.

 

Obviously.

Ditto

[Snowstorm1]

Nothing here

[Geordiesnow]

Its one of those nights where somewhere could get quite a bit of snow whilst 5 miles down the road gets nothing at all, they really are that localised these showers.

 

I think parts of Teesside could do quite well especially as the land sticks out a bit, be localised no doubt but some potential for sure. 

[garylaverick]

The rest of the showers don't quite seem to be making landfall.

I'm in that "down the road gets nothing" bit.

 

All bloody winter I've been here ...

Agreed. Are the winds due to turn more E'ly at all? If not, then yet again northern parts of the region are scuppered!

[NorthEastSnow]

Middlesbrough look like getting a nice shower in the next 20 mins. Typically I am to west for this to affect me.

[Summer Sun]

Heavy snow shower incoming for parts of teesside

Stop laughing, just answer me please.
