Weather warnings for Newcastle Upon Tyne

Yellow warning

Snow showers may lead to disruption

Impact: Medium

Likelihood of impact: Very low

Further details

Snow showers will feed inland from the North Sea through Wednesday and Thursday, giving significant accumulations in places. Where these are most frequent, 2-5 cm will be possible at low levels, with 5-10 cm on hills above 100 m elevation, and potentially as much as 15-20 cm above 300 m.

Some fairly strong gusts could be associated with the showers and some isolated lightning strikes are possible at times.

Where showers persist and/or snow partially thaws and then refreezes overnight, this will bring a risk of ice.
