An hour of sleety snow in Norwich? I think we will get more than that given that it comes here during night hours.
-
I am originally from a hill area. It is not rare for there to be no snowfall at sea level and 12 inches + at 400 metres up.

The feature's moving quite quickly according to Met Office guys live on Twitter just now, but they were keen to point out cold air is also tucking in quite quickly behind & graphics seemed to show it slowing down a bit as it turned to snow for us from like 7 ish to around midnight 1 ish. Looked quite promising so fingers crossed!!
So 6 or 7 hours of snow, potentially for us in East Anglia.

Don't understand the negativity. The front will be over us for 4 or 5 hours near midnight, that is plenty of time for evaporative cooling to take hold.
-
We actually didn't have a frost despite getting down to -4c.

All we can do now is go off the radar really, the charts at this stage won't really tell us much about tonight. All we can do is compare previous projections with current radar, track etc
Well, the snowfall is arriving at 9pm, so I would think it wouldn't be too marginal.
-
Not sure why there's so much negativity about marginality. It's looking like we're guarnteed for snow tonight?

Don't want a Southern dominated event.

Well they have been moaning even in the north and the west country people have said that they have only has a bit of frost so far. It just seems to me that we can't achieve a period of prolonged cold any more, like a couple of weeks worth in mid winter, strange really. I can't remember the last cold northerly for example with -10c air flooding south and snow showers with troughs moving inland, we just get the wishbone effect of flurries and rain on the coasts. ohhh well, maybe it will be all change from tomorrow.
Well I have been in Norwich for almost 4 years for University, and every year it is mostly just frosts and a few slushy deposits. Bar last year, it doesn't snow too often here.

Strange I know, the northerly was not very cold at all in the end. These sort of little lows moving down the north sea used to produce snow showers in April, even early May, now it's rain even in late January. Just don't seem to get that cold any more unless its a beast from the east set up and -15c uppers!
It seems to be quite hard to get snow in Southern England compared to the rest of the British Isles, maybe its the reality of the climate.
-
To be fair, it did say we were due a covering of snow last night and we just received rain. So I wouldn't take it as gospel.

What event? Tomorrow or Thursday?
-
Option B, prefer the cold, crisp days with the short daylength.

It's fine, it's just hard to work out what someone in London means when they say 'high snow risk for the region'. Do they mean Southern England or East Anglia too?

I think they sometimes split it. In to EA and then London and SE.
That seems to be a better fit.

Why does this thread cover such a wide geographical area?

FWIW, 12z ECM is very interesting on Thursday evening for our region. Heavy snowfall for many...
Can you provide the snowfall charts please?

It is much colder than expected here on the South Coast. It is 0.5c already at coming up to 5pm. It was expected to be 4ºC..
Does this have an impact for tomorrow?...

4c with a 1.5c dew point. Didn’t get too warm here, so less to fall.
