Default Snow On Pennines

First snow of the season on the Pennines visible this morning (unless
I have missed a previous fall ). Only a dusting above 2200ft or so.
Crossfell and GDF.

Hi, Paul,
I think there was a slight cover around 20th October that Dave L
mentioned and I also think I saw a light cover then, but it could have
been hoar / rime.

Default Snow On Pennines

Ken

Thanks - local gritting team mentioned it snowing one night, but it
didnt last for long as it quickly turned to rain, that must have been
the occasion. Glad you mentioned it, gives more evidence and I can
add it in to my events log.

Perhaps some snow tonight on the very tops ?

Paul

Aye, very smooth white looking Crossfell it looked like snow but
could have been very heavy hoar/rime. The top of Crossfell was in and
out of the clouds.

As for tonight maybe, the first signs of the approaching system are
appearing. Of the last few hours the wind has gone from the NE to SW
and is picking up, pressure is falling and so is the temp just below
5C ATM. GDF is reporting similar changes to the wind and a temp just
below 0C. So Snow is certainly a strong possibilty up there and quite
likely for us, assuming the temp continues to drop.

Clear and frosty last night, but a number of showers later in the
night and this morning. Observed sleet in shower leaving the village
at 0800, temp 2c.
Dry from York Westwards, so the showers moves further inland than
usual.

Forgot to add, wouldn't have been surprised to see snow on the North
York Moors, but I could only see the Western area and didn't have time
to divert for a better view. 2.8mm from showers since midnight here,
now below 0 again.

There appeared to be a dusting on the higher Cheviots when I was out and
about this morning.
