[sgrech]

What's happening in Braintree / Witham please?

[The Giant Daddy Jackpot]

You need to get out more! :lol: It's turned into pixel watch! The weekend looks very promising, SM can you clear something up for me, is that an upper warm front coming in for Sunday for you guys up there.

By the way major chaos in se France with that winter storm bringing snow right into the Med region, snowing here but nothing compared to further east, Steve I think my snow jinx has ended,that low has thrown some precip quite a way nw which stops 20 miles to my north and has been in the same position for hours!

I have just been watching that swinging in to SF on meteox. It looks blistering!

[sgrech]

Still think we are going to miss it. Danbury is right is line for several inches me thinks?

[StLuke]

Still feel like its going to be very close here in Southend, latest radar moved it slightly further inland!

[sgrech]

what do you folks think, 45 mins before that southern edge arrives at Leigh...?

slightly off topic but thought this winter photo is superb: http://www.dphotographer.co.uk/users/8975/thm1024/dsc_3218rcopy.jpg great job by the photographer.

Very good photo.

It depends where you are in Norwich. I'm 6 miles out, and have 10cm, but in the city there's only 4/5cm. Hoping for some more over night.

You have done well. Up in Fakenham it has been quiet.

Nothing new here since 3pm temp currently -6c . . . was hoping to catch some of the showers coming off the wash but that didnt happen . . who knows maybe something overnight but I do dread to think what the roads will be like in the morning. My road ends at a junction with a main road . . other side of the main road is a creek and there is no barrier. Noone has gone in yet but I do hate pulling out in the winter as they never grit my road.
