East Anglia And South East England Cold Spell Discussion

[chrisbell-nottheweatherman]

OK folks, Look East forecast:

Tonight - frosty, fog possible in west. Mins -1 to -3.

Tomorrow - sleet and snow drifting down from north to affect mainly eastern parts of region, Could give a dusting on high ground, but washed-away later by rain. Tomorrow finishes with maxes of 3 degrees and patchy rain.

Thursday to Sunday - Snow likely on all days, mainly in east. Accumulations unlikely to be more than a dusting other than Thurday night, but very cagey about amounts. Sunny intervals most days except Sunday, but Sunday night will be above freezing for the first time in the forecast with -1 minimum.

Really chilly here, it's been subzero since 3pm, currently hovering around -2c but it's already been as low as -2.9c.

[Optimus Prime]

Saw the BBC forecast. As usualy they're over doing the maximum temperatures for the SE

cheers for that- I guess that the clouds cleared from the north.....

expecting the same drop here- hoping to see a -6 pop up, I think the forecast max tomorrow are to high....

at the very least the top 0-10cm of the soil is freezing up-
