Avoided all showers so far.  Slight dusting.

[P-M]

Now this is what I call BEEFY!

[smogonthetyne]

Just got the wife’s car ready for her shift.  A cm or two, fell off the car dead easy 

light snow at the moment 

[P-M]

The radar is jam packed with showers.  I've woke up a very happy lad this morning.  Let the fun begin.

Booomm here proper covering . Radar looks brilliant going to be a snowy couple of days. Hard to know how much there is is blowing all over 

[northumberland snowman]

Looks like a centimetres or two here with some hefty showers incoming. 

[mathematician]

Proper snow in Darlo as well! About time! The fun has just begun!

[Willitwontit]

At last. Caught the first shower at 4.30am, high winds and blizzard exactly the same as the beast from the East we all witnessed. Done it once more since, now off for an hours zzzz. Really hope this keeps up today

[Continental Climate]

The radar looks really good all over the region. Looks like one of those great days coming up where you only have to wait 15 minutes between each beefy shower. 

[northumberland snowman]

Wow very heavy snow and windy here now 

[Continental Climate]

Just perused the radar and dare I say it does it look slightly better for the south of the region than the north. No sign of a streamer set up yet. If there was our warnings would go to Amber and they haven't. Still great though.

Id say anything above that line is currently the beefiest showers. But as we know that can change rapidly. Interesting day ahead that's for sure!

Showers too scattered yet.  Could also be a day where you don't get 1 decent hit

[Snowmaggedon]

Got up, peeped through the curtains... 

 

AAAAND BREATHE.

 

IT HAPPENED GUYS!!!

[northumberland snowman]

This will be making Nick happy.

This was consistently the scence during 2018...showers to North and south of Newcastle.  Is the case now.  

[Snowmaggedon]

So does anyone know what time Teesside got hit this morning and what’s the radar looking like now?

Still early days yet mate, there's plenty time as the day goes on for more organised bands of showers.

Just go on netweather radar and go back the last couple of hours and you'll be able to see. If you put your postcode in it'll put a marker on the map for you too.

We don’t want that high cloud getting any further north, not sure why there a amber warning further south

That is bad luck right there. The nature of showers I suppose.

My point is...its not luck.. It's a scientific effect.  Need NE wind for showers here
