Nothing. Nada. Zilch.

Morning all!

I've been a lurker on here for years, and eventually got around to registering back in 2018 - still didn’t post anything

Anyway, back to today - I’ve been up since 5am (went to bed at 1am) and I’ve been watching the radar since with fingers crossed something would start heading over, but all seems to disappear before it gets here

Hoping for a much better day than the dross that was yesterday. Walking the dogs at 10pm last night wasn’t a pleasant experience!!

Welcome to the sometimes crazy world of these forums mate.

Seems all the action is happening in the SE at the moment. Canterbury is getting buried as we speak.

Update...

We have snow, albeit very light, but hey, it’s white, and it’s falling from the sky

[Doctor96]

Well it is rainy sleet in YArm near Middlesbrough . I do worry that the temps are not low enough currently 1.6 c

Dew points are -1 it’s cold enough now for snow.

Is it me or is there a little more intensity and frequency in the shower activity showing on the radar now?

Very,very light snow here atm.

Yes, as forecast.

Showers will continue to pep up, perhaps with a brief lull this afternoon.

This gives me hope as only about 4/5 miles from Jarrow.

Annoyingly,the lampost turned off just as it got started making it harder to see now lol.Very light at the moment though.

[Jarrow Posh]

Snow grains now falling a bit harder now and trying to settle

[Boro Snow]

Nothing here all very disappointing. Nothing much incoming either as a gap in the ppn has appeared. Right back to kip it is

Just had a shower In Boldon which passed quick but settled.

Far too much negativity in here this morning.  

We are all in a good place.  Just let the weather do its thing.  Just because it might not be snowing right now over your house doesn't make this a disappointment or a fail.  Things are just kicking off and loads to be excited about

[Tucka20]

Well that was disappointing. I'm not sure what forecast people were looking at but, as of Friday, the radars were showing decent levels of snow falling in my location from around 3pm and MetOffice the same. Yesterday morning it was shown as heavy snow from 6pm on radars and forecast. We haven't had anything. So I don't see how it is as forecast?

Exactly top post some of the posts in here are laughable

You sure it’s falling as snow in Redcar albeit very light and I live right next to the sea .

What a let down this cold spell has been so far. As usual a lot of hype for nothing.

I went to sleep around nothing sure than when I wake up everything would we white, I opened the curtains and absolutely nothing. 0. Nada.

Looking at the other regional forum it seems the same happened everywhere...

Calm down, its literally only getting started, no one was forecast deep snow off that band, tbh the quicker it shifted the better as the convection can get get going, which it is now. 

[seabreeze86]

Radar at 4am and radar now. Not difficult to see what’s happening

Good job we have another 72-96 hours of convective potential then with today being the least convective 

[Doctor96]

Dew point is currently -3 is not even close to marginal. Even the lightest precipitation will be snow now
