[OhYouBadBadKitten]

Apologies to those in Norfolk who may well not be excited any more!!!!
This a continuation of This thread and is for model watching, forecasting and general excitement

Off to look at the models (and get dd up) back in a few minutes with latest thoughts!

Several of us in W Sussex :)

*Helen, wearesix and joyfulpuddlejumper. Where abouts on the coast are you? Im about 20 miles up from Brighton.

:)

Not been able to sort a car, so he's getting to Manchester and getting a hotel room there tonight.

Going to have a gutted DD1 on my hands in the morning :(

And a tense wait to see what the weather does. Hopefully he'll get a train ok

Just checked the council website. there are 2 school closures for tomorrow already and nothing's happened yet.

Ohh just seen on Met office we've been upgraded from light to Heavy snow for most of tomorrow! - Eeek!

Plus now snow showers on Sunday and Monday too! That means we could have snow for the next 4+ days!

Sitting I don't fancy that concoction for breakfast

Hello West Sussexers I'm near Midhurst/Petworth area lots of us on here!

Thanks so much for this badKitten - I love your weather reports. I'm freaking out a bit because I've been away working for a week and am desperate to get home tomorrow. Obviously you can't predict public transport but do you think I'll make it home tomorrow? I'm going Edinburgh to Glasgow early morning then Glasgow to Bristol (flying) about 3pm then Bristol to rural Wiltshire about fiveish (by road). Any thoughts?

Still really light, too light to class as proper snow, in my book anyway.

Waves as pigley I'm near Gatwick also.

nightmare about the crumpets by the way :)

I'm in Worthing. Probably the plainest part of W Sx!

OYBBK-what say you to snow in SE Essex-I have a horrible feeling we'll miss it all again!! :(

Sold out of crumpets - that's a disgrace! You could ask DD to make some - I loved doing that when I was young I can barely be bothered to toast them these days!!

I'm not quite so sure about timings now, but they still roughly follow my last post about timings posted at 15:20, it is getting a bit muddled with this evenings snow being heavier than expected and the earlier arrival of the snow tomorrow.

Basically tomorrow if you are in England or Wales and away from the SW (where it may be rain) or the far NW of England where it may stay dry then at some point tomorrow you will almost certainly get snow by the early evening. Towards tomorrow evening along the south coast it may turn to rain for a bit. Further north around yorkshire and above it is going to take its time to get to you, maybe not until the evening.

Looks set to reach central england by around morning rush hour and London and East Anglia by lunchtime.

I think that probably pretty much covers everyones 'will it snow?' questions. :)

Any news for north Herts? I think we will only get a sprinkle. :(

I keep looking and my snow is being predicted later and later! I think I'm in the only part of the country where it's not going to snow

Thanks OYBBK - from that I've decided I'm going to get home. :)

zippy, I think youll have no trouble getting to Glasgow. Bristol is rather in the firing line though. Not a fun drive at all either.

If you are on fb its worth checking out your County Constabulary page (or their webpage) where they may well be saying stay off the roads tomorrow. Ours is.

Cheers Kitten, your ace.

The forecast for my area - south east Cheshire - has changed about 10 times during the course of today. It's snowing lightly now and has been since 5pm, but the forecast for tomorrow no shows absolutely no snow for us at all. Which seems odd. And I'm feeling rather excluded

2cm on my back door step. South Yorks.

joyful you are just down the road from me :)

Thanks Kitten - I realise I'm being a bit optimistic! It's the Bristol to Wiltshire leg I'm worried about cos the only way to get home is by cab and I live in a village at the top of a big big hill. Sods law I'll manage to get to Bristol then be stranded 15 miles from home. Thanks for the constabulary advice - I've not been in England long so don't know the routine. Much appreciated.
