Here is a video of our road to Southwold on Monday.

The car you see stuck in the drift, is still in the middle of the drift this morning

Which road is that Timbo - surely not the main Southwold Road coming from Wrentham? Covehithe route?

Yep the main road from Wrentham to Southwold, was impassable till Monday afternoon, some of the Drifts must be over 6ft tall.

[Robster]

Snowing here also at the moment - wasn't expecting this!!

Thanks. Must have been Sunday night I drove right along it coming from Southwold, guess it drifted a lot more overnight even though we didn't get any more significant snow.

[NewEra21]

Yep, definitely looks like some activity developing in the north sea. Wasn't expecting to see showers developing as far south as they are!

[Arid Acle]

Snowing here in Acle too - although only lightly

Everyone ready for round 2?

Obviously just for fun at this stage, but the models tonight are just beginning to show what the Met Office forecasts have been saying for the weekend commencing 20th February. Cooling down with a return of easterly winds!

Please no, the snow has arrived and its enough now, I just want the warmth to come with all the lovely spring nature coming out 

[Blazerblue]

A few light snow flurries here, nothing more than enough to blow around in the wind.

[suffolk lady]

guess what just looked out and we have little snow flakes blowing around bitterly cold, and crunchy road outside, also lying snow on roofs and ground

[Paul Sherman]

Strangely that Easterly wind not letting up the fight that easily, thought by now we would firmly be in a South Easterly veering to SSE by tomorrow but most places still with East winds more especially the East Kent coasts and this is advecting in super dry air with some -9c dewpoints creeping over from France and Belgium.

When exposed to that wind it is harsh luckily the snow pack is so crunchy and iced over there is thankfully little chance of drifting otherwise there would be some impressive totals blown into North West and West areas exposed to this wind.

Bitterly cold in the that wind today.just been out for my daily walk and feels colder than at any stage this week.currently-0.4 @ 10.45am.

Wife took dog out at 7am and took this lovely sunrise picture.

[Nimbusman]

Light flurries here too, totally unexpected 

[NewEra21]

Fairly chunky sized flakes coming down here now. Nice little surprise to round off this cold spell!

[snow mad]

Seem to have our own streamer back building.

Weirdly there is nothing showing (for me?) on that promising looking French radar site

Red sky in the morning, shepherd's warning!

[Floatylight]

Didn't expect that pink blob today.

Bit falling in colchester.

Yes didn't either bother looking.

Untill my friend said it was snowing!

[Jimmyh]

So we still have snow showing in a number of different places in garden. Really surprised at how the snow is sticking around 

[lassie23]

just seen a fly in this weather

Much less high cloud today is allowing stronger sunshine.

Only down to - 0.9 here overnight due to cloud cover... 

Looks like mild weather is gaining traction now.. How much rain is associated with that is un clear yet.. 

Could be some quite nice weather next week if we get some sunny spells and no rain.. 

Expect a rapid thaw of snow by Monday as temperatures climb to 10 or even 11c in some areas! Positively tropical compared to what we have had this week.. 

Only managed one ice day here I think Monday or Tuesday.. 

I haven't been above freezing since it got cold, but I'm not sure about today yet. Was clear but very windy last night which kept temps up.

[Timmytour]

We've not had that much in the way of snow at all here, but I've noticed that today there's been more melting of the little bit we did have than the last couple of days....
