South East and East Anglia Weather Discussion Sept 2020 onwards

[Mac_SE]

Steady icy rain here. Delightful 

[80sWeather]

As always with higher temperatures comes more moisture, had rain showers here in Cambridge all morning.

Been dry all week when it was cold enough for snow.

I saw @TomSE12 had a flurry earlier I have most rotten luck it went to my east. Very recently had a shower but icy rain couldn’t make it up, always getting precip when conditions are hostile..

Agree, how fitting we finally get Precip and it’s wet sleet at best. 
 

Fingers crossed those 10 day charts hold up (a miracle) but no harm in wishing.

Always the way 

Cold enough for snow = Dry

Not cold enough for snow = Wet

Naff all here on the Suffolk coast! More chance of the Pope turning up than the illusive snowflake!.........Hold on who's that at the door! ..............

Rain here in Bromley, why did I manage to sleep through the shower earlier that reportedly had snow

Lol. A warm welcome to the SE & EA Regional Snowmut.

1.9c Here in Woburn. 

Rain just started 

Only in the U.K.  can it feel cold enough for snow, but still rain ? 

My heating works overdrive for cold rain. 
what a taste 

[Stu_London]

A few light snow flurries in Tunbridge Wells - first of the season

[John Stevens]

Surrey Hills Snow shield up and working fine!! Light cold drizzle up in the hills!

[3cats]

We was out walking earlier and had about 10 minutes of steady snow in Nutfield and one very excited 5 year old!!

[Polaris]

So frustrating, ppn here 

Raining 

You bet, when the parameters are good for snow there will be no ppn 

Aka.. past week 

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Temps so not conductive of snow now.. But could quite icy later in any places that get below zero long enough and have had showers today.. 

Still convinced some will be quite surprised next week with how things pan out.. Looks like quite a few opportunities to see snow at least falling.. Perhaps some coverings in places as well

Getting desperate now staring at the rain trying to make out any sleet mixed in.

Cloudy, dull, temp at 2C. Here in East Dene. Time for a large G and T. And afternoon in front of a roaring log fire watching Back to back episodes of Friday Night Dinner. Good Health.

Haha

Pouring down here currently and cold. 
Don’t get much worse for a New years  day that carries on from the previous one

That blob that just went over us was just light drizzle.

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Really is just the wrong side of marginal here.. Talking 1-2 degrees.. 

 

There is quite a lot of showers coming down from the wash.. If we can nudge temps down just a notch after dark then we might see a few more flurries.. 

Even last night with the low cloud and muck here we got below freezing 

[Polaris]

What’s this talk of “get the cold in first”

Last night was -6c here and -2c until 10am with light snow flurries 

It’s now pouring with rain in a northerly flow. 
 

Get the cold in first means diddly squat!

No chance, it’s 1.4c here and pouring with rain - moving your way 

[Daenerys]

We had a slight scattering  of snow earlier in Epsom but literally for a few mins

I'm off out for a walk to enjoy the cold drizzle. Hoping if I walk up the hill there will be a sleety mix to enjoy

[lawrenk]

Cloudy, dry and 2 degrees here in East Sussex. 

The last couple of days have felt much more like it in terms of a cold spell. Just wasn’t feeling it last weekend. Let’s hope some of those stellar 10 day charts now start counting down consistently. A proper snowy January spell will be great, I’m sure someone will correct me but I can’t really remember an early/mid Jan one since 2013.
