Three Counties & East Anglia Regional Discussion - January 14th 2013>

[Iceni]

I don't think I'd even try to guess at this stage. It's very uncertain what will happen when it begins to interact with the north sea and the front that passed last night.

I didn't mean specifically — sorry. What I meant was would this front inching its way east meet another inching its way west and sort of get tangled up? I don't understand what wrap around means.

Little flakes in Leigh on sea looking forward to the wrap around, is leigh to far south :/

[Dexter29]

Lovely big flakes settling on the grass

Great news, and in Epping ;-)

Looks like we should do quite well today and tonight.

That warm sector should stay to the south and west of us in Essex :-)

[Gringomez]

Heavy snow here at Aylesbury - not sticking to roads or pavements.

[icy toes]

Proper snow has now arrived - yay!

[Paul Sherman]

Still not a solitary flake in Saarfend since this sorry episode started!

Temp and Dewpoint going to be close when it comes through at 1.5c and -0.6c and rising rapidly, not helped by a southerly breeze off the estaury, bog off low and turn those surface winds around!

[TEITS]

Starting to kick off now.

For members to the E of me at first it will be just light, small flakes, Do not mistake this for sleet.

This really makes all those hrs following the models worth it.

Very light snow over here in Cambourne (Just outside of Cambridge), been like it for about an hour now, not anywhere near heavy enough to really settle on top of the load we had in the night. Hopefully it picks up a bit more.

Expecting a BT engineer to come and install Infinity today too, knowing my luck they'll use this 1/2 cm of snow as a reason why they cant come out!

The front is here. Heavy Snow in St.Neots. Fingers crossed it stalls and stays all afternoon..!

Smallest of fine dandruff snow in chelmsford.

[Jonathan Leaper]

[Gums]

Getting stronger here in Huntingdon !

[Andy H]

very light now, and if anything the overnight dusting we got is thawing now

[Hughsey]

Proper snow has now arrived - yay!

Same here, really coming down now, struggling to settle on some of the wet surfaces, but temps should drop a little soon, and the intensity may increase a little more, so should all settle soon I reckon.

Now you know why they called it Infinity. You have to wait for one to get it.

[Jonathan Leaper]

[Balls Of Snow]

Light rain here, all snow has melted!!

[80sWeather]

Starting to kick off now.

This really makes all those hrs following the models worth it.

This reminds me of the classic 80 s style frontal snows it used to build up slowly starting with small dry flakes getting heavier and heavier

[janetmh71]

Very fine snow now falling here now

[Naturist-Holiday.com]

Light snow flurries here in Haverhill Suffolk.

East Anglians look well placed for a good fall today.

As Dave (TEITS) said in an earlier post, the wrap around tonight will be an added bonus for those snow-lovers out there .

Been snowing quite heavily in Mid Bedfordshire for about an hour but has only just started to settle as the snow gets more intense.
