Just missed a biggie by a couple of miles! Hopefully it hit @Snowmaggedon though in Linthorpe.

This one is a corker. Big flakes! 

[Boro Snow]

Showers do seem to be merging together a bit, also looks like the wind is more of an easterly again

I think the MetOffice are having a laugh with their wind forecast for this evening into tomorrow!

Hoping at least one of these showers deposits enough snow to go sledging at the moment all i see is grass and the kids are very disappointed.  

Hope you get something decent, nothing worse than when the kids are desperate to go.

I know, the sledge is outside ready and we had to live with scraping the ice as next best thing last night. Just one more snow day for them to enjoy is needed in this crap time we are all living.

My very unscientific assumption was that the change from NE to E has caused a bit of a gap whilst the easterly showers move over

There's a system dipping in to the north sea from the north and then doing a u turn and going back out of the north which is why it's all over! I'm keeping my eye on it as it wouldn't take much of a course change to give the whole east coast a massive dumping. Sadly it's currently being modelled to stay out at sea.

I bet £20 this is what’s coming for Newcastle  

[NorthEastSnow]

This is a better shower please last 5 hours.

Could be i suppose.

Just builds anticipation for the showers moving in behind.
