Afternoon Scott, braced and ready for this?

I've updated our neighbours on WhatsApp as the last Amber warning we had that you did very well out of, left a dusting before it pulled itself together to deliver in God's country. They then said, thought you said its gonna snow.

This time, I think they are getting the message.

Been up the road to Valehouse Reservoir next to the A628 Woodhead pass. Temp dropped from 6 to 3 degrees in an hour and a half.

As per the flooding on your side, all the chain of reservoirs are full and the bypass into Valehouse is in full flow.

Afternoon mate.

Yeah im excited for sure!

You broke a rule and spoke about snow the weather gods struck you down hahaha! 

The flooding issue has not been thought of in all this at all

Weve had some awful rain if it was snow wed be digging ourselves out haha

[The PIT]

Sleeting here now but very light stuff. The main stuff is either to the north of us or to the south of us.

[Love Snow]

Lots of local flooding around Leeds quite surprised at the lack of warnings for it.

There's going to be some budding tobogganists in the next week with all the run off freezing.

[LeeSnowFan]

flooding is certainly an issue for parts of our region today, lack of warnings is poor! been raining here for over 12 hours and still coming down

Yep, that is the one I picked out on the GEM run, and it’s still there! . If you run the 0z sequence through, it’s over South Yorkshire for about 24 hours, after which it heads north then later moves back south again, but it looks essentially the same streamer moving over a period of about 60 hours!!

Keep seeing this streamer on the precipitation charts right over my head. For once, hopefully it plays out in reality!

Down to 4.2C with a dewpoint of 2.6C. Quite raw in the wind already with gusts of 25-30mph.

Re flooding

Went for a walk round our reservoir earlier and it’s overflowing and flooding the road so could be bad for lower parts once this lotmakes it down to lower levels

Exactly right Adam. A Humber streamer is the last thing we wanted to see but it looks increasingly likely unfortunately.

There are loads of Environment Agency warnings and watches going up in and around West Yorkshire at the moment. The Met Office doesn't warn for river flooding.

Snow starting to settle up on the top of M62.

I thought as much with streamers. Sadly Leeds is a little too north in the E/NE airflow! Still, hoping for showers a plenty to give a couple of inches!

Streamers, textbook example of a Humber streamer (this is the actual precip chart for Monday 9am rather than the accumulated one)

That streamer will shift north progressively 

[sorepaw1]

Would i be right in saying snow even down to low levels by 7pm tonight 

Anyone else have any updates.

Just looking at temps for next week and GFS Ens Mean has us below 0c for a week!  Could that be considered a cold spell!!

Oh OK - I guess they don't think the rainfall amounts will be sufficient to cause any issues except to add to river levels, which the EA warn for. The warning process around flooding has always been a bit of a grey area. The US does it better.
