Glad to see the Met Office has upgraded the weather warning to be more realistic.. They do seem to be reactive though.
Thurrock and Southend expecting 4-8 cms?
Just measured 6cm of snow here, near Colchester, which was easy as I have a flat area outside and there's sod all wind. Seems to be intensifying again too.
Now East Anglia is 'orange' on Met Office warnings. Must be reading some of the corrrespondents comments here..
About 6 or 7 cms here now. Still snowing.
The Met Office have now made Essex 'Orange' I suspect the 2-5 cms mentioned might be an understatement, as we already have this here. Having said that, the snow is now lighter. Alresford, near Colchester, Essex
Several cms of snow in Alresford, Essex - between Colchester and Clacton.
Started snowing at about 7 this morning.
I see the Met Office are off the mark with warnings in our area.
Together with missing the protracted cold spell in February 1986, when referring to the duration of this one and instead going back to 1981, they're not covering themselves in glory.
