East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion

[Essexgooner]

Well after looking at the 10pm radar Im confident I will see something in Rochford/Stambridge..... worth the wait, least I will see something before bed

[Steve C]

Shame to leave that out in the cold

The layer of snow will protect it from the frost!

[sgrech]

Snowing heavily here, about 3 or 4 miles from Witham!

South or North?

[maidstone weather]

Anyone have a current model shot of where the milder sector is ?

oh it's slowly moving away, but the dewpoint is dangerously close to 0C here!

Thankyou MW , wow look at all that deep cold far oop norf lol

By the way folks the gfs 18hrs run has performed a backtrack towards the ECM. Still a chance that there might be more fun and games to come for quite some time.

Low pressure now between Kent and Calais so Mild Sector gone through, pure snow now in the showers, Uppers have risen to -9 from -6 earlier - They are going to be -11 tomorrow so all snow showers if you get em

Is East Kent too far east for any of that stuff in the North Sea currently?

[sgrech]

Still nothing here

[FatherOf2]

Yep, new run of the predictive radar only gives us the far western edge with the heavier stuff for Maldon
