Snow in Yorkshire - NT73 - Aug 5, 2012

Saturday afternoon, I went to a football match in reasonable sunshine, 1/2 a mile from where this pic was taken. I live now about 4 mile from here and other than a light shower of rain, nothing overnight.

Freak weather caused chaos in Bradford last night after sudden heavy rain and hailstorms led to flash flooding.

Firefighters were called to Oakroyd Terrace and Woodview, Manningham , where several inches of hail had fallen, forcing residents in about a dozen homes to evacuate.

Patson Jamu, 25, a resident in a basement flat, said he had to ‘swim’ through a window to escape after water gushed into the property.

He said: “I was asleep and the next thing I knew the house was flooded. The main door wouldn’t open so I had to swim through a window. I was scared, it just came from nowhere. All my stuff is ruined.” <

Strange weather indeed. Temperatures of 23-26 are forecast for later this week. Should be nice for skiing.
