Badkittens weather into the new year thread.

[OhYouBadBadKitten]

Following on from the Boxing Day snow thread we have weather warnings from the met office for snow down part of the east coast and widespread ice. Around Northampton could also see some snow today. Take care over night and into tomorrow morning.

The theme of rather cold carries on through this week, especially away from western coasts. Some central areas could struggle to get above 0C even in the day time. Some sharp frosts. The next few days look dry and cold, with perhaps some freezing fog, especially over any snow fields. At the moment it looks like things might become milder through Thursday with rain moving in. GFS disagrees with this though and keeps things cold.

GFS then keeps teasing with a possibly dramatic return to school snow wise for some. Its a long way ahead but as ever I will keep you updated. However i may not be always able to answer specific questions due to real life so if you need to know urgently please check out the met office

Boo! Oh well, thank you kitten, there's always next week I suppose huffs off

Who knows though? Stop polishing that sled, Gloria I blame dh for stockpiling salt

Oh drat. It seems ages since we had some snow here. Mind you, I can only remember a handful of snowy winters when I was little. I think we've been spoilt by those few years when we had quite a lot.

It snowed for much of the night here, woke up to this

More snow here on yorkshire moors. Annoying as I have things to do! Staying in all weekend was not my plan.

Sleet! Woo hoo!

Snow pics are great, I am sooooo jealous though!

I'm in East kent and the BBC website are showing one snowflake for us for Tuesday, I am so happy.

I know it won't lay and will turn to rain but it is our first snowflake for this winter.

Trying to snow here but it's a very half hearted effort!

Woohoo - big fat flakes!!

Yay!

Aw no it was only teasing! Stopped now

big fat nothing as usual,south

Hoochymama ~ it's probably my sledge polishing that's driven the snow off! I should have sat out in a deckchair, in my swimming costume and sunglasses! That would have scared the neighbours made sure of snow!

snow lying in outskirts of glasgow but not much, took me 4 hours instead of 30 mins to get home on friday so dont want that again but a good few days of proper serious snow would be good

BBC now has light snow for us on Tuesday and Wednesday, but won't believe that until I see it! Met office still has sleet.

Depressing forecast for snow lovers in the south - most of the risk has rescinded.

You have made me very, very happy, OYBBK!

London now showing possibility of sleet/snow on tues/weds

I know it's another mirage but... Please!

Forecast for Leicester says snow too. BBC says 'light snow' from 5pm Tuesday right through 'til 6pm Wednesday (metoffice gives us a spell of heavy snow at 6am Wednesday.)

Some really nasty icy conditions possible overnight and first thing tomorrow morning where skies clear over night. Take care if your roads are wet at present they may well by ice by morning if not already.

I'm reserving judgement about Tuesday and Wednesday, but yes some light snow if possible for places.

Any chance in south east?

Hello Kitten. Sounds like you've had a lot on your plate recently - hope that's easing off a bit.
The forecast for tues/weds is messing with my head! It seems to change at every opportunity - we've gone from light snow to no snow to heavy snow to sleet to ?? No snow currently I think. I'm north Oxon so south midlands I suppose but I think that probably applies to most the 'south'. Don't worry, I'm not asking for clarity from you - just sharing my frustration

-2.2C here (Leicester)
We're forecast heavy snow, starting midnight Tueday~Wednesday, wth sleet occasionally and then light snow throughout Wednesday. We shall see if this happens.

morning all! (not yet fatsatsuma - hopefully the end of next week should see things ease down significantly)
So tomorrow england, biggest snow risk is for northern england, this may spread as far south as parts of Oxfordshire, but I have my doubts at present about it spreading further south than that.

Lethal roads here this morning. Snow in haslemere according to dh.

Morning!!! Lovely thick frost down here on outskirts of Brighton
