[3 Counties & Ea Cold Spell Discussion Part 4]

My kids are losing the will to live.....

No snow AGAIN in the least snow covered county in the UK called Northamptonshire

We missed all today's showers from an Wash set up.

I feel your pain, I have had 2cms max out of this cold snap so far. Have just been ridiculously unlucky.............. :lol:

Still my post count is going up

[3 Counties & Ea Cold Spell Discussion Part 4]

Hi - have just joined having found the forum. Went out earlier and temp according to car was 3^o!!! I too am on Cambs/Norfolk/Lincs border - no-one ever seems to mention the Wash!! Still, probably because it's a bit of a no man's land! So what's expected for us - do you know. I look at the radar and it says we have ppn over us but nothing - then we get a rogue shower. Are you, or any other poster, any the wiser???? Thanking you in advance

Welcome

Best thing to do is radar watch and cross your fingers

[3 Counties & Ea Cold Spell Discussion Part 4]

Don't worry, temp here is +1.9, but dewpoint is -1.7. What will fall from the sky will be snow, and it will drift and stick (or is that stick and drift?0

my weather station has the dew point at -3.2

[3 Counties & Ea Cold Spell Discussion Part 4]

Temp is worryingly warm here at 1.5c . . has not dropped down at all after sunset

Janet

Met office forecast us drizzle and sleet for times tonight n tomorrow..........

[3 Counties & Ea Cold Spell Discussion Part 3]

That's because that forecast is completely wrong!

[3 Counties & Ea Cold Spell Discussion Part 3]

Well the BBC has the main snow band just to the north of Peterborough with Peterborough getting the odd shower, we cant be that unlucky again can we..................??????????????? lol

Fingers crossed they are wrong, like 90% of their forecasts

[3 Counties & E Anglia Cold Spell Discussion Part 2]

The constant showers did the trick last night with the snow shower at 3am lasting for around 45mins. Must have around 3inches of snow outside.

Wow! That's great news, chuffed for you!!

What a difference a few miles makes hey! I have just over a cm, still looks promising

Just want to thank you for your model analis and outlooks you do, spot on

[3 Counties & E Anglia Cold Spell Discussion Part 2]

Hey hey I have 1cm of snow!!!!!!

Finally

[3 Counties & E Anglia Cold Spell Discussion]

*Edit - Stopped

[3 Counties & E Anglia Cold Spell Discussion]

I'm so surprised that peterborough has done so bad for snow of late.you lot usually have 10x more than Northants.

Fair play, your right

Still, dont like the shoe being on the other foot

[3 Counties & E Anglia Cold Spell Discussion]

And its stopped!

How much did you get? I got a slight dusting again

Must admit slighlty hopeful we will see a wee bit more before morning

[3 Counties & E Anglia Cold Spell Discussion]

waited long enough ey Dave!! lets hope we get a few cms!!

Scrath that looks to have stopped!

[3 Counties & E Anglia Cold Spell Discussion]

At last a decent heavy snow shower here. Really coming down!

waited long enough ey Dave!! lets hope we get a few cms!!

[3 Counties & E Anglia Cold Spell Discussion]

Well right now we have approximately 5mm... in the drifts!!! We are concerned about the population of ants and spiders and the effects this "Worst weather in decades" will be having on our insect life!!!

I still say 5mm is rather a lot for this region

Mine 1mm blew away hehe

[East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion]

Well it was all fine until about 3pm this afternoon with about 4 inches of snow, but main roads were clear, then it got blatted with a big shower, that apparently caused gridlock. I left work as it started to snow, so I don't know what it left.

But he should wait till the last minute before deciding to travel, who knows what may happen tonight. There are several Ipswich based posters who may be able to keep you informed.

Thanks for the post Nick, your a star

Thanks as well Senator Blue

[East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion]

Can anyone from Ipswich give me any advice, my brother needs to travel down there tomorrow and sunday just wanted to know how much snow you have got and what the roads are like in rural areas? Cheers

Hope you have done better then me? I had a dusting this morning which stuck around for an hour or less. Although I know parts of Peterborough got a wee bit more!

Yes we are one of the few places where this cold snap probably won't be remembered!!!

[East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion]

Does anybody think this band heading suth from Hull will hit Peterborough or will it go slighty West of us?

They look like they will miss us mate......
