Build a snowman by order of the GOVERNMENT! Environment Agency urges homeowners to pile up ice and prevent flooding by delaying thaw

It's still pushing in to south Essex and just into south Hertfordshire. I don't think it will go any further north, because it loses energy (snow) very quickly.

It's snowing here! Very light and slight dusting on the cars down our road.

As I expected, the band is dying away now leaving a dry night generally.

Morning all.

An uneventful morning here, weatherwise. About 2C, so still the slow thaw goes on. I've given up on this spell now; maybe the 2nd week in February for the next cold possibility then? :)

Morning all.

Morning Steve and all,

Still plenty of snow cover in MK...Temperature -0.5 °C & Dew Point -1.6 °C I think it's going to be here until the rain arrives at the weekend to wash it away...I wouldn't say no to a reload in a couple of weeks but I'm personally quite content with the amount of cold and snow I've had so far this winter, but I did think this was funny !

So is the possible significant snow the BBC were blabbing on about for Friday off now?

I'm not even thinking about it tbh. I think snow followed immediately by rain or thaw is just a pain in the backside.

Well if I'm going to enter a period of mild boring dross I'd rather a snow to rain event rather than just rain.

You guys seem to have done pretty well, way out west tongue.png . The trouble with my area, is that although we had reasonable snowfall on Sunday and Monday was pretty decent too for temperatures, a thaw then set in on Tuesday and that's been the way since. Your temperatures of 2 or 3 degrees lower have made it quite a long lasting event.

Until the next time!smile.png

Well for my region it might be significant in it's blandness, but I can only really see a load of sleet and rain for most of the South tomorrow. But then I'm not a professional meteorologist with £billions of equipment and data to hand!

Plenty of snow still here, however, most paths are nice and enjoyable sheets of ice! Tomorrow, I haven't really looked at the models, but, there seems to be a lot of disagreement over it still. Interesting that the BBC seems to be rather confident about us all seeing snow tomorrow night. At the moment, it seems that once again, no one is sure what is going to happen.

Imho, I really don't think it's anything to get excited about. Certainly where I live, these events have been almost universally non descript in my memory. You might start seeing snow, which will possibly be heavy. Then you'll notice that the snow flakes are falling quickly, meaning it's turning sleety. Then it's time to await the next reload of cold...

Only time will tell of course though. smile.png

Just before bed last night Louise Lear on the BBC news channel was going for 5cm for this region.

Meto update for tomorrow is pretty uninspiring.

Carol Kirkwood just have a little good news: heavy snow reaching London by 9pm tomorrow and had our whole region and the SE corner under snow.

Snow amounts uncertain but 2-5cm for our region looks likely at present but that could change to more.
