a friend of a friend has received an email from Guys and St Thomas (where they work) warning of cold and disruption with possible snow and cold. coldest part will be middle of next week and to make relevant necessary to get to work next week.

 

Wot do we all think this came from Met office

[TheMoonman]

Down to 2.7 with a dew point of -1, now.

[Essexgooner]

Looks like we are going to miss out on that band heading down the north sea coast, slipping away to quickly South Eastwards, oh well getting use to these boring winters now

[Blessed Weather]

Well looking at the latest radar you would think most of East Anglia would be enjoying looking out of the window, watching the white stuff falling. I'm right in the middle of that pink and it's sleet here.

Dry as a bone here in Haverhill (CB9).

Very gusty wind though, making it feel raw outside.

On the radar I am in the pink but we have microscopic flakes falling. Hearing it is heavier in Kings Lynn but too wet to settle.

 

Not often we are in the right place shame its not snow that will settle 

[Methuselah]

Sleet is turning into snow and it's blowing a hoolie. So, with enough luck, all NW-facing surfaces could get plastered. As might I?

[Jo S]

i want big ones, not micro ones, ,so i am willing to wait until i get the full hammering and cant go to work as knee deep in it
