East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion XXXIV

[PhilM]

Is this band moving south west towards surrey (guildford) and if so will the rate drop much?

[kold weather]

Paul, its settling in London!

Seriously is my area got some sort of heat magnet or something, still no sign of it settling here even though the precip has pepped up...can't say I suprised.

Steve, thats very interesting, I hope that happens but given recent performance I'll admit I'm somewhat doubting it'll be close to even the lower end here...BUT I think your range is quite possible in the so called bullseye.

The 06z NAE went for 4-5cms generally and Ithink thats reasonable...

Surely can't be long before it settles here...

[kold weather]

Radar seems to indicate so I'm in Addlestone, Surrey so watching http://www.raintoday.co.uk very closely.

And yes http://www.raintoday.co.uk is up for me

Drove back from Chelmsford. Heavy snow (not settling - drip fest) all the way to North Woodham. Descended from the heights to the plains on which South Woodham lies - no snow. Literally, not making it up. It stopped. Last half-hour has been snow purgatory, looks like it is trying but failing. Need another 15 minutes if the PPN continues to try.

Today I think that is it for you and I.

[shark17]

Yep heaviest part of the band looks like heading towards E.London, about 50-50 for my location, anywhere further east and your once again going to cop the dry slot!

I don't think I've ever been so unhappy on this forum, esp for you guys a little more to the east...haha a little change in a phrase sums up my thoughts for S.Essex over the last 24hrs:

never has so little been delievered by something which promised so much!

Can I please ask a 'Punter' question Kold? (so I can at least explain to my kids!)

How come we (North Kent Coast) have been right under the system since around 4 am (looks like we should be buried from MO IR Sat pics!), but haven't seen anything fall?? :-(

[Wayneywoo]

Is raintoday down for other people?

Not working for me either.......

Depending on your browser, I just leave it ticking over in the background. Couple of times I've got impatient, performed a F5 manual refresh and not had the site back for a good while.

I'm looking too! It will be icy tonight/tomorrow......

When do you think we could see some more?

Just looking at the models now Saint.

Great whiteout and big flakes here....everything covered in minutes

[Country Boy]

Posting this again...here you can follow the heavy showers moving in from the north/east...look at the size of this current heavy shower.
