Default [WR] Snow, north Leeds

2inches of snow in last 1 hour at Alwoodley Gates north Leeds in last hour
and a half.Now 8am and still coming down as a blizzard.
Traffic blocked at Harewood.
Heaviest snow of the winter, but looking at the orientation and size of the
snow shower on met office radar ,it is a 20mile wide streamer ,but maybe 50
miles long with a north easterly track ,taking the majority of the snow over
Leeds.
It shows just how local showers can be.
