Far north and northeast of England - regional chat

[Summer Sun]

ICON thinks we'll have rain during tomorrow and Wednesday under -12 850's

The first bulk off the n'land coast is increasing intensity as it approaches. I expect the main front to follow and hit further north than initially predicted.

[Boro Snow]

Definitely looks a bit further north to me, that stuff in front has intensified a wee bit, right off to watch the Walking Dead ?

If it’s further North that means most of the North East is in for a biggie tomorrow morning?

I've been tracking this area of precipitation all evening and to me it looks like making landfall somewhere  around the Blyth area and then heading sse from there.Just my uneducated opinion though!

I agree, would have guessed Whitley Bay so only a few miles between our respective predictions.

Yes that follows what you can see on the radar.  The lighter patch is getting pulled more Easterly, which means the track of the snake will change before it makes landfall, keeping it more north when makes landfall.   Reminds me of the shape of the pnn from 26th Nov 2010 when we got 8"

Expected inland locations in about 30 min

That's exactly what I'm seeing on both fronts. It did look like Teesside was in the firing line with the second front but I'm not so sure now. Seems more north now!

First area of snowfall just making landfall with the North East. Should be affecting a few of us within half an hour. Second, intense area of snow looks to be further North. Newcastle looks more in the firing area now. 

[Boro Snow]

Actually is the front still developing

Its definitely pulled further north.  I am going for Wearside to make landfall now.  However i think that the main PPN will still be further south as the low continues to develop

Snowing in Ashington.

It is still developing and it looks like a radar fault on the southern flank it just doesn't look right, cuts off to quickly.

[ZK099]

This area could dump an inch or two. Prepare for impact lads!

Looking very interesting,  this band ahead of the main low was not forecast by any model as far as I know looks like it is intensifying,  nice little surprise. The main band is still developing so very hard to tell where the must intence precipitation will end up.

[GeordieX9v]

This isn't wet snow.

Nice little base for the real stuff.

If you are lucky enough to get alignment with the intense core of the snake you are in for a real pasting here.  Some red areas starting to appear now which is greater than 10mm per hour of rain.  Not sure how much snow that would be in these conditions, but enough to cause mayhem

[NickR]

On phone. Out. Can someone tell me how it looks like Durham will fare with this low?

[CPK East Durham Coast]

Hello....

I’m on the coast east of Durham and can’t see anything yet.

I wouldn't except it to be with the dew points so low

Looks very good to me

[GeordieX9v]

Snow in Ashington heavier than radar suggesting.

10mm equals 10cm roughly.

Yeah definitely a fault just seems to dissappear
