Really different feel to things out there now. We have 11cm of snow laying, -2C, powder snow falling and wind has picked up. I've just done a 5 mile journey from my parents (within Covid rules before anyone says anything) and I only just made it back. Drifting is getting quite bad here and the Amber warnings are very much warranted now in this part of the world.

Quickly improving picture here in East Suffolk. Now 0.1C, wind is getting stronger, snow has got a bit heavier, and now readily settling. Radar picture also improving. For anyone despondant about the situation this morning, I would suggest catching up with the BBC forecast on BBC Breakfast. Confimation that things are expected to turn to snow more widely and also lots of talk about showers leading to good accumulations tomorrow, perhaps well inland too.

Even though i'm in one of the sweet spots, slap bang in the middle of the amber warning area, I have a horrible feeling that most of the snow is going to end up further east and south and be a Kent/Essex only affair tomorrow. Call me pessimistic but have been disappointed too many times before. A very interesting week coming up. With winds falling lighter towards the end of the week and deep cold well entrenched, we are going to see some severe overnight frosts over those areas with good snow cover.
