Sleet and snow predicted tomorrow and Tuesday in York
York saw a brief period of sleet and snow in the early hours of today (February 15) before it quickly turned to rain.
Hilly parts of North Yorkshire saw a couple of inches of snow, making driving conditions difficult on some roads, such as the B6265 at Greenhow Hill, near Pateley Bridge, pictured here on a North Yorkshire Council webcam at just before 7.30 am.

Slightly milder weather arrived by mid-morning, but BBC Weather has predicted there is set to be more sleet and snow tomorrow night and early on Tuesday, especially on the hills, with a possibility of further falls later in the week, including in York.
However, there currently seems little prospect of any return of the ‘Beast From The East’, which saw bitterly cold weather and heavy snowfall in York and North Yorkshire in late February 2018.
BBC Weather’s forecast for the period February 23 to March 1 says ‘there are no signs of notably cold weather at this stage and temperatures are more likely to be near or a little above average overall.’
