East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion

[West Sussex Kate]

wow sounds fab all of you! well the flakes here the other day were very small, so this sounds really good! keep warm.

[kold weather]

I seem to recall a front doing something similar to this one, weakening near the south Midlands only to explode back into life near the London region, can't remember when it was but it gave us down here a decent fall.

Looks to me like the energy is plusing up the front itself, so London should get this pluse, then maybe central/eastern areas of Essex may see the development of the next pluse, will be interesting to see what happens regardless!

It was down to the west- quite a few more have cropped up - but there orange~ only 40cm per hour

S

Steve, streamer to develop running east up the thames?. You mentioned something like this earlier?

Is it worth me staying up? Can anyone tell. I saw on a link of a radar on here but haven't a clear as to the direction and amount of ppn.

Live webcam of Ware high street here, not seen it settle there before!

Anyone know if Portsmouth will get any snow?

[snow raven]

Not long now - and with so many more positive snow reports on here, I am a tad excited

[Iceni]

Had just about an hour's worth now — covered up all the footprints so it will look quite beautiful again tomorrow morning, temperature still -1.6 ° C (that's a 5 degree rise from 6pm :winky:).

This w/e is turning into a very memorable one — let's hope we'll be able to say this week has turned into a very memorable one on Boxing Day.

If I remeber right, it was earlier this year (could be wrong), late at night and all of us on the forum got very excited.

I think the Chiltern Hills causes this with uplifting. Seen this happen in the last three years, front moves from N/NW and the ppn suddenly intensifies when it hits the Chilterns.

[Andy H]

stil going strong here bring it on

[Jan_Bromley]

Would someone kindly post a NW radar picture please? Thanks

[john mac]

getting heavier by the second moderate snowfall now covering already

[rubble79]

Turning more to snow now...
