Far north and northeast of England weather discussion

[Tucka20]

I'm at around 170m and have a corker of a forecast from MetO on Wed night / Thursday. Lets hope it comes off. 

[damianslaw]

Suspect NE will be the sweet spot and not just above 150m. Could be a significant snowfall this one on Wednesday/Thursday.

Durham could be in the sweet spot again for this, obviously the more height you have the better. 

[NorthEastSnow]

Your not wrong.

The map of Great Britain is very distorted, shows S England much larger than Scotland, and Cumbria looks tiny... hope that white edges west to cover Cumbria. Central and Eastern Cumbria is currently under the warning area. NE looks prime spot for long lasting heavy snow, could be a significant event this, most snow since beast from the east, and who needs very cold uppers, all happening under very modest ones! Just a front moving into cold air - these are the real deal!

Not here we had up to 20" the other day still half of it to go down the river yet.

I suspect you will get a cracking fall out of this in your location/elevation. Snow totals by Friday morning. If this is correct you will be buried.

Personally only experienced one good event when fronts come in from the west, usually to mild for my location and I can for see this just being another let down.  
clearly usual spots will do very well.

Wow 20 inches! really, wasn't aware there was so much, nothing mentioned in the media, trifling amounts.. where are you located! I thought the most that fell anywhere was about 6 inches.

I agree. 

100m asl but not sure it will happen here, think another 50m higher and 5 more miles inland will do very well, plenty of Sleet for us I think. 

[Bridgeport Harrison]

When will we get a better idea of how much will fall ?

[gazzac69]

hope I'm wrong, but I think it will be the usual areas well inland with elevation which will get the proper snow Wednesday, Thursday

I'll still be lamp post watching though

[Cloud 10]

Belting down with rain here at the moment,but can it turn to snow?

North York Moors. I did mean over the tops it was that much - but here was 10-12" lying, it never stopped all day Saturday and Sunday looked like this.

[Bridgehill Blizzard]

Turning sleety here now in Consett.

Even though the forecast is going for a region wide dump I am expecting nothing in darlington. Even though we are 20 miles from the coast we never seem to be on the right side of marginal in these type of events. Durham Northumberland higher areas I hope you all do well and can't wait to see the snowed in photos.

Heavy snow

Snowing here at the moment.

[tynevalleysnow]

If this chart verified at 72 hours out we may merit an orange met o warning!

Pretty good agreement for some snow over the region in the next couple of days,but down to radar watching and looking out of the window no doubt!
