Going from SWales tomorrow to Wolverhampton then on to Newcastle / Middlesborough Wednesday back through Leeds / Wakefield Thursday
Any locals give me a heads up before attempting?
This is Leeds/Wakefield border currently. Roads aren't great TBH, would expect them to be better by Thurs though.

Anyone in Newcastle?
I'm in Hexham. Conditions probably a bit better than woody's pic above. Towards the coast (ie Newcastle) its more like sleet than snow apprently.
I am in Leeds Weds coming up from Wiltshire, are the motorways ok atm?
Ta muchly.
Newcastle's roads were fine today - a bit of slush but nothing drastic. Got to Middlesbrough on the A19 fine today, although the rest of the population on the road were driving even slower than usual for some reason.
The roads around Leeds are going to be shut on Thursday*
*This is a guess.
Have a look through the BBC Traffic Webcams to check the route
For example: http://www.bbc.co.uk/travelnews/manchester/trafficcameras
Worked well for me last year and last Thursday/Friday
HTH
Thanks guys
