There gets to a point when you don't need to lamp post watch to see how heavy it is. We've reached it!

We don't have street lights in Worlingworth - really out in the countryside - you have to stand still, tilt your head right back, and count the flakes into your mouth per minute to decide the intensity of the precipitation!

Great stars though when it's clear.

NE Essex definitely isn't getting hammered, we may just be getting close to 1cm (I am being generous)

Whereabouts exactly are you because here actually in Colchester not far from town there is around an inch of powdery snow

Temps -4c and still snowing hard what is cms to inches is 2.2 cms so at least 14cms this is a dry powder snow event -god forbid if it had been marginal . Got to say Biggin Hill does do well but this is the real deal. Might just have a day off work if the snow continues. Feb 1991 had these sort of temps-you know the wrong kind of snow. Gatwick closed the M20 closed. Just hope everyone keeps safe because out of all of this however beautiful the snow we all hope people are ok.

Snowing heavily in Braintree - depths now level with curbs. I have £5 with the g/f that we'll see 4" by morning so hopefully more to come!

Just seen a van skid back and forth all the way down our street as well - could be an interesting journey to work tomorrow; I have a rear wheel drive car...

We seem to have picked up some sort of streamer from TW to Brighton. Not a usual direction for Brighton, but I'm loving it :D

I've a front wheel drive car so not too bad - but it has Limited slip diff - which sounds useful in the snow - but it just goes bonkers !

I checked my Net Weather radar and it's looking pretty sparse for Norwich for a while. There''s an area currently just off the hook of Holland which could come your way, but not for a couple of hours I'd imagine, although if convection happens in the N Sea, you might get lucky.

Why not invest in a month's NW Extra Lite? We might be needing it this month :lol:

That made me really laugh! :D No snow grains doesn't count it has to be flakes that have a chance of accumulating before I'm old and grey! :)
