Heavy sleet here around an hour ago although its not coming down half as hard as it was! Looks as though flooding is going to be a real problem here over the next few days, some roads are already flooded due to the snow melt and the saturated ground.

Not going to be a pleasant few days, and i certainly think we have seen the last of the snow.

Should be about to change for you too! Have you not got massive flakes in the rain, as described earlier,more like snowballs than snow flakes!

Nothing here in Norwich by the look of it. Main band looks to be fragmenting on the Met Office Radar.

I hope we done't miss out again, as this winter has been quite poor so far in this neck of the woods.

Seems a funny thing to say when for over a week, we have had plenty of possibilities for snow, with a similar trend over next few days. I'd not rule out anything over the next 6 weeks. Winter is not over just yet.

I really hope you're right! Was trying a bit of the reverse psychology!! Just gutted that we seemed to be in the firing line so many times only for it not to happen!

A post from someone on the model discussion thread..

"The plot thickens further if you look at the latest Sky News LRF on Interactive.

Maximum of -5 in the South East on Thursday coming, with widespread significant snowfall according to Isobel (the presenter)"

Surely not?!

Nothing here at the mo. Had some heavy rain earlier occasionally sleety. Don't think I will see any snow until possibly mid week onwards after Tuesday's storm, but this will probably in the form of a few flurries or showers.

Just had a very heavy snow shower in west Suffolk - huge flakes!! Down to a gentle fall but don't think it will stay long, it's 4c.

If you look at the attached (click on loop and look at Thursday) - it will show snow showers in the North Sea - perhaps skimming the eastern side of the country however I am not sure how good this chart is - I use it to look at sometimes but it is not always right..!

Has Paul said when he will be posting his thoughts on why some areas have missed out on snow?

This cold snap has literally had the snow either stopping or tunring to rain about 10 miles from here everytime. The only time we seem to get significant snow is when the models don't support it.

(I guess this should have been in the whingers thread, sorry.)

Paul said yesterday on this thread that he was doing a report on this. Not quite sure when and where though so keep your eyes peeled! I know I will be!
