East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion

[coldfingers]

Am really bored as not had a flake,are we in Brighton going to get any snow,as all the predictions from the forecasters are different,please someone help lol,am getting so excited about the snow but starting to think it wont happen Was so dissapointed with the country file forecast,really thought there was going to be lots more snow falling ????????

Don't despair! Tuesday night/Wednesday morning looks really good for you at the moment. Patience has it's own reward. Dunno what that means but sounds good.

Snow shower a bit heavier than everything else that has fallen today and it leaving a covering on the roofs. Wind speed 0mph from the NE

Our weekend snow-storm from the East is cancelled on the 18Z.

Out to T+144 is VERY different from the earlier runs and other models

No snow on the weekend!!!

[Dean E]

Thanks snowmania,i hope your right,really would love too see some good amounts of snow falling soon lol

Indeed! I wish you all the best! us down on the south coast seem to miss out on most snow events, or get one event then it rains the next time and snows 20 miles north! Ahh well only time will tell!

Isn't it a bit unreliable anyway out that far? A lot can happen in that time.

Lol the same as last night, all will be cheerful in the morning again.

[Great Plum]

Is this going to make its way though my way, looking at the returned it seems to be heading straight for me...?

And if it could just move another mile to the west...

It is still showing some for us on Saturday and light snow early Sunday with some heavier stuff looking to come in also but the charts are still coming out slowly for the precip so not sure yet but looking good to me. Mind you I don't have any technical knowledge and have often been disappointed before.

No checked again and just light snow for Sunday but remember that is a long way ahead and an awful lot can change before then, but Tues Wed looking very good as it is closer.

To be honest, you get to know the decent down to earth posters, the rampers and those that crack open the prozac at every run the longer you are with this site (those are on my ignore list).

Give it 6 hours, and the board will be breaking open the champers again!

Seriously, I would recommend reading balanced posts from the likes of Steve Murr, Nick F, Paul Sherman, TETIS, John Holmes and a few others, and you will stay sane. Either that, or do what I did, and had a break from the model watching. I didnt quite manage the 48 hours I said last night, the cold turkey was too strong to fight!

[Damp and dreary]

Easily make a 100 if the snow really gets going. Or will we all just be glued to the window watching those 50p size flakes driving past on an easterly wind?

I keep watching that snow moving westward and wondering..... wondering .... wondering, will it reach me? Probably not but I will give it until midnight until I go off to bed.

Even then I will peer out the window every time I wake.

Well i need to go to bed, normality returns from tommorow, sigh. I agree with your earlier reply, these damn downs! still there is more shower activity looming in the NE, fingers crossed they make it too you before fizzling out.

[charlton north-downs]

Very cold in Biggin Hill at -3.3c and its snowing

[dallas]

just came out the Indian rest. to bitter temps and light snow

[SteveCoops]

Had a couple decent flurries in last hour or two here in Southend - just hope a bit more will blow in and get us instead of Herne Bay and Margate... Maybe I should sit on the end of the pier

Cheers,

Steve

[Neilsouth]

[Snowydays]

I'm with some other people on this I don't know anything about technical weather what is 18z and stuff please explain all I want It to do is snow

[Essexgooner]

You just know the 'big snow event' wont happen, lol

[rmc1987]

For here as of weds the BBC forecast sun on weds, light snow thurs and sun on fri. So this snowy week, does anyone actually know where it's meant to be snowy? I've got it as Kent/EA. Which will fit in with the weather advisories.

[Bolton67]

Looks like Ian Fergusson little tease before he logged out has some front.

Still looking good for snow in the SE but not as much.

[Charltonkerry]

Well that's a surprise been away from netweather for a couple of hours and it is snowing in Dartford not very hard but it is laying everwhere
