Let's hope for a repeat! Given the conditions this week, you have to think we'll see plenty of showers pushed this far west.

Definitely, Dare I say it...You would really have to be unlucky not see any snowfall this week in our region.

These charts from Dan Holley at Norwich based Weatherquest are now very appropriate for our new Region. Potential snow accumulations to midday Mon, Tues and Weds:

personally i think they look accurate, maybe even generous for some places!

I will add the why to my statement. 

The direction of the profile of the snow lines looks if though its s straight easterly, yet close range high red models shoe Streamers in both the wash and Thames indicating a North of East component. 

Normally 13 degree temp difference is required for lake (sea) effect snow to occur. The difference this week will be up to 24 C so bigger showers, these further being enhanced by even colder air aloft. 

Added to this is the durnial heating. 

We are are in March the strength of the sun will assist the penetrator inland

So to  recap bigger showers, going further inland than would normally be the case.

Brave words! :wink: Hopefully that convection does really get going. Even the December snow was a surprise to be fair.
