Three Counties & East Anglia Regional Discussion - January 20th 2013>

Well pleased with todays snow event so far, hasn't stopped all day and a good 3 inches of fresh snow out there.

[janetmh71]

I'm in Emneth, looked like it was getting going 30 mins ago, eased off now!

Outwell here so howdy neighbour

[snowking]

Snow turning even heavier here now and even more to come looking at the radar

Already had over 10cms fresh snow, could be nearer 15 by the time it's finished

Cannot believe the met office still havn't upgraded warnings yet...2-5cms up to 8 is laughable

[essex coast matt]

Fairly heavy here now,and a few more hours yet by look of it,temp dropping to -0.1c

[Yarmy]

Praise be! I have dust. That's it: no work for me tomorrow. And I work from home.

[East_England_Stormchaser91]

here in bourne the light stuff has finally started falling.....expected it hours and hours ago but have been on the edge all day....i guess we're in the disappointed category.

Hopefully you'll get it soon mate.

It really has been a case of a jackpot or nothing situation today and the meteorologists in the met office will be feeling like idiots if this doesn't get a move on North!

Looking at the radar, things are going to go for a bit yet, adn there are still some heavier bits around including in the Thames estuary. Hard to see the direction of travel on them though. There is some real stuff coming into the N Sea from the Dutch coast. Will it hit EA - of course not.

Indeed,the North East are going to get it once it moves further North and gets pushed more Westward by the easterly flow

In the sw of the region, the first holes appearing in the precip and the intensity generally easing in the london area. Would be a surprise to see this filling in now and i expect this is the beginning of the end down here.

[Number 23]

It's weird we've only had 5-6 cms here, but many places close by have had a lot more. Not complaining though as I need to be out early tomorrow, just interesting.

[suffolkboy_]

In prime location here, but been snowing since about 2, snow grains so small you can't even see them, must have half a cm. So how is it everywhere else is talking of 5cm+ etc as the radar has the same colours for most people as it does over mid north suffolk? Surely not another non even for here yet again??

You're not all that far from me! I can be in Diss in 20 minutes. We have had about 4cm now, been snowing properly since about 2pm. Very fine snow but building nicely even on the road. Not a soul to be seen this evening!

A few from just over the boarder:

[chestnuts roasting]

Been snowing all day here ! Small flakes but heavy at times . Probably about 2/ 3 inches of fresh snow today

[JennyJane1]

Seems to be some even heavier stuff just off the coast, is that going to be a direct hit for Norfolk or is it on its way past us into the North East?

i am going to have a bath in a few minutes, that usually provokes spectacular weather which

I RETURN TO FIND EVERYONE TALKING ABOUT HERE BUT WHICH I HAVE MISSED SO EXPECT BLIZZARDS IN ABOUT 20 MINUTES TIME

[TheBigFreeze]

watching the animation on the netweather radar it looks like all the bright yellow will EVENTUALLY make its way across Norfolk??

[PurpleButterfly]

Now have 5cm and still coming down nicely.

[fenland ice]

Outwell here so howdy neighbour

😄 Howdy indeed! Just checked outside, mainly light but coming down still.

[Gary_R_Walker]

Seems to be some even heavier stuff just off the coast, is that going to be a direct hit for Norfolk or is it on its way past us into the North East?

I think it's going to hit Great Yarmouth, and miss Lowestoft by about 3 miles. So good luck.

[Dan the Man]

Intensity definitely increasing here.

Maybe it just looks worse in lamposts?

[If Wishes made Weather]

Not doing quite as well as you in Elsenham kris, but 7cm here or so. It does look though like some of the heaviest stuff may be on the way

[Bolton67]

Damn, the precip to my south west has died a death over the last half hour...............Not Good.

[janetmh71]

😄 Howdy indeed! Just checked outside, mainly light but coming down still.

Darker blues getting closer on the radar so might start properly soon . . . . greens still a long way away. Just a shame I have to work tonight but at least if it shows properly then driving will be more interesting :-)

[paulmary]

Temp - 2.0 still comming down depth 9cm fresh snow,roads are very bad A1198 still moving but very slow

[saint]

Snow has settled on the soaking roads for the hours, conditions are bad!

[Ben_Cambs]

Looks like some heavier PPN on its way here.

[atrow]
