SE and East Anglia general weather discussion 01/01/2018 onwards

[danm]

Looks like NE London just inside the warning zone for later, so fingers crossed we get some overnight. 

[Dami]

another little flurry.  nice little surprise considering i have no snow in my forecast. 

[Chris101]

Not the greatest i've ever seen by a long shot but there is some nice looking convection around Ipswich, blue sky filling in and some dark bases.

New BBC weather graphics are showing on BBC one at 1.30, worth a watch

Agreed, definitely some convection around here with some cumulus building, fingers crossed for a few flurries 

[Coopsy]

Just been for lunch time walk. Lovely and warm in the sunshine

[Chris101]

Graupel and some fine snow now starting to fall.

[Hammer50]

Yes looks that way no more than 1cm for the lucky ones, unless the wash can pump some moisture into the front... It's still throwing ppn put currently and running south west into West London areas

Thought as much, at least it's not worth lamp-post watching tonight then!

[Nimbusman]

Yes some ample convection got some light snow here now

[Dami]

one of those days when you get the snow be it under not much cloud, then the darker cloud comes and it stops. Radar has be in a nice sizable shower but nothing falling now.

[lassie23]

Sunny here and warm enough for my cat to venture out

[fatyido]

Currently having a snow shower now in St Neots, Cambs, but I'm not too excited.

Been into the Midland thread and they are just reporting light snow flurries and barely settling and the front weakens moving south. So don't have high hopes of anything to note.

[stewfox]

Just had very light snow flurry here in Didcot today

[Uxbridge90]

Forecast now showing some light snow during the evening, can't see it accumulating too much mind.  

[Southender]

Just had a good flick through all the other regional threads. General consensus is “pants”

Not holding out much hope for our region later, unless we get a suprise pepping up. We shall see.

Just seen it on iPlayer. It looks good. 

 

Still dont agree with the hour by hour forecast out to 14 days on the app and website though. 

[Azores Hi]

Hmm

? It doesn’t feel warm to me at all even when I was in the sun. Hands numb.

[Lampostwatcher]

it' s 2c and dew  p -1c feels bitter 

I think those showers over Norwich seems to be pushing quite far in land and pepping up

[snowbob]

Looking at the radar looks as though the front approaching for tonight is breaking up in the middle

just the bit that would pass through the home counties

hope I’m wrong

[lewis028]

Those showers seem to be heading towards us and not losing intensity, if anything they look to be building and slow moving.

It’s sliding south south east to me so heavier stuff will threaten Home Counties.
