Lucky enough to lead on tourism for North Yorkshire. Posts mostly about my travels.
Great to tour Ripon City Wetlands with the passionate team from @yorkswildlife.bsky.social and Sir Julian Smith MP. A stunning example of what nature can do if you allow it to flourish.

The snow depths across the Lake District are very inconsistent, but it seems deepest in the south and east of Cumbria. Conditions on all the high passes and in the fells are also very difficult. Take care if you need to be out and about.

Although this isn’t a named storm, conditions are abysmal across the Lake District this evening. Take great care if you’re out and about early. Very strong winds are forecast throughout tomorrow alongside heavy rain, sleet and snow. Storm Éowyn might not officially be here, but it feels like it.

If you’re planning outdoor adventures over the next couple of days keep an even closer eye than normal on the weather. I’d put money on this one becoming #StormDarragh and the wind strength and direction could be quite impactful.
