Three Counties & East Anglia Regional Discussion - January 19th 2013>

[East Herts Snow]

Started snowing here in Buntingford, North East Hertfordshire about 10 minutes ago, already a light dusting.

[tinybill]

its at felixstowe the first band light stuff

heavy stuff just off clacton

[angel23]

Snowing here in Luton now

[Habsish]

Fine but steady snow here

[MagicBat]

Snowing here and sticking to roads. Looking good as its early doors and more to come.

[paulmary]

Just started here light and small flakes

[bluearmy]

the colour tone on the radars darkened between 8-15 and 8-30. makes it look as though the whole lot went more intense.(which it didnt). also makes it tougher to follow where it might be intensifying as the scale is, in effect, recalibrated at 8-15.

[TEITS]

Just a quickie to explain the rest of the day.

The lighter band currently across us is expected to expand and intensify this morning whilst at the same time the area of snow to our SE continues to move WNW. Areas such as Cromer in the NE of this region could have a bit of a wait until it arrives this afternoon.

Heaviest snowfalls predicted by the NAE suggest a line from Norwich to Peterborough although only be a few cm.

[MKMartin]

Snow has started now just outside milton Keynes

[tommyboy1]

Getting heavier and settling nicely in felsted essex

[DJ Fart]

Nothing in Colchester still but then I wasn't expecting anything until at least 10am.

[WheresTheSnow]

Is this just the starter before the main band of precip later? Its already snowing by the way!

Any idea on the east coast situation?

Seems a mix of opinions on whether it will be marginal or not.

[Mrsf16]

Blimey! That blob cropped up quickly!!!

[80sWeather]

Hooray, light snow just started here in Godmanchester.

[DJ Fart]

What rain alarm do you use? Did you say you had it as an app?

[Ben_Cambs]

Some light snow beginning to fall in Cambridge.

[starstream]

been lightly snowing for over an hour here,and its acumulating nicely....looks very pretty

[Shere Khan]

Snowing nicely outside here again. Wasnt expecting it so early.

[Number 23]

Beginning to fall here, looks like the snow was doing it's best to avoid visiting Braintree, and to be honest I don't blame it...

[Soaring Hawk]

Steady fine snow, accumulating nicely.

[Gary_R_Walker]

At work driving around East Anglia all day, so will try and use my phone to keep in touch with what's going on here regarding snow disruption. So far no snow, and incredibly clear roads. Perfect.

[Wivenswold]

Not sure how a system that's moving NW could be giving snow in Braintree, Chelmsford, St.Albans etc but nothing around Colchester. After Friday paranoia is setting in.

TEITS, are you saying the 5-8cm predicted might be wrong ?
