Yorkshire & E England Regional Weather Discussion

[Aiden2012]

Little bit of precip coming down which seems to be sleet/snow to my surprise

[Love Snow]

Some nice reports coming from the north west thread ! Hopefully the bbc will be right for us this afternoon 

[ChezWeather]

Reports of snow in Manchester City centre, plenty on the radar, just need it to survive its journey over those hills 

[Barking_Mad]

Pennine snow shield doing its job so far.

[joggs]

Sleet in Bingley although reports if snow further west.

Liking the look of friday on the meto forecast for my location. If i see anything today its a bonus as not expecting anything  

This is the last week for my snow hunting, this winter looked promising early on but im not so optimistic now, looking forward to some spring warmth and then long summer nights

for all in our region to at least see some snow this week! 

[ukpaul]

Turning to snow now (I'm up at 200 metres asl at the moment).

Light rain In Otley ! 

[cowdog]

Heavy snow now, but that rain earlier combined with temp around 1.5C means its only settling on grass.

[The PIT]

Light rain here at the moment.

[Aiden2012]

We have rain now so at atleast the pennine shield had dropped hopefully. Now just need snow lol. 

[ukpaul]

Heavy snow here too. Also not settling owing to above freezing temperatures. Would need a cool down of a degree or so.

[doctordunc]

Still sleet here, although there seems to be more snow in the mix in the last half hour or so.

Ha ha I'm sure you won't be back in February or March if we get a right dumping!  

We need the intensity to maintain this side of the Pennines to keep us in the game for settling snow later on.  If it stays light it will be sleety rubbish.....

The Pennines rain shadow looks to be in full effect at the moment though with that large area of light precipitation stretching from Leeds down to Sheffield;

Some big flakes now. Think there's still some rain in with though, and nothing settling.

[summer blizzard]

That light rubbish was around this morning. It's from the initial trough.

The heavier precipitation is moving east so i am optimistic and places in the north west were suggesting it took about an hour.

I have messaged the parents on higher ground to text me when it turns there. If we get a dusting i will instruct mother to break out the ruler for me.

Cat and Fiddle web cam looks alright

[Cheese Rice]

The valley also known to some on here as the Otley Gap is actually allowing precipitation to filter though over North Leeds. 

I'm in London but family are reporting snow, our house is actually a little north of the red dot so staying in the heavier echoes.

According to the radar the light blues fade but the pennines are not stopping darker blues. Reports from bradford in the next hour should be intetesting.
