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

Eek, slightly worried now at what Wednesday has to bring, given that OYBBK has mentioned Lincolnshire for Wednesday, but we have just had about an inch or so fall in the last hour Confused

LIZS · 02/02/2015 20:16

Looks like tomorrow morning could be interesting

OhYouBadBadKitten · 02/02/2015 20:28

updated warnings which does reflect the SE potential overnight.

Would be about right, the morning I have to go out in the car Grin

FatJerseyPostXmasSpud · 02/02/2015 20:42

ITS MOTHERFUCKING SNOWING!!!

PestoSnowissimos · 02/02/2015 20:45

Where are are you FatJersey?

TheWoollybacksWife · 02/02/2015 20:46

Hope you feel better soon OYBBK Flowers my grumpy iPad now recognises your name Shock

We have just had a 2 hour snow shower (Northants) and are now under the yellow warning area for tomorrow and Wednesday I am ignoring the fact that DH is flying home tomorrow from a business trip and he wouldn't appreciate coming back to bad weather.

FatJerseyPostXmasSpud · 02/02/2015 20:57

In Jersey lol

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 02/02/2015 20:58

Jersey, that is not fair. If home gets snowed in and I get nothing here, I will be cross.

pinkkoala · 02/02/2015 20:58

Its snowing in northampton, just got dd up from bed to look out the window, i didnt think wd were getting it til tomorrow am.

ColdJerseySpud · 02/02/2015 21:01

Its not alot of snow i have to admit. Enough to coat the cars up my estate and the grass.

DH just drove home from work and says its a bit slippy.

GloriaSmud · 02/02/2015 21:05

Yay Jersey!
We've got snow here (Leicester) as well ~ just a slight covering at the moment but looking at raintoday, looks like there'll be some more snow showers coming our way in the next few hours.

ColdJerseySpud · 02/02/2015 21:07

Its not alot but i just want a little bit lol. If it snows too much ill be walking to work and back tomorrow. which is a very long way.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 02/02/2015 21:11

That's funny Woolywifeback :)

Thank you for all of the well wishes.

There's a lovely arc of snow heading south through central England. Looks like it will reach the outskirts of London (and in a line roughly parallel with it) around midnight. Not long lasting but as it travels south it seems to be gaining in size.

That's interesting Jersey, my radar has it as sleet, so it's interesting that it's coming down as snow. You may catch some more later too.

GloriaSmud · 02/02/2015 21:19

If that's the system that's given us our snow, it looks like it'll have a productive night!

Having watched it on the radar the past hour and a half, I can officially say it is turning white outside Grin

Hope you're on the mend OYBBK (and my iPad recognises you too!).

ColdJerseySpud · 02/02/2015 21:48

I think its coming down more as sleet now but was definately snow for a time

NameForReallyRandomStuff · 02/02/2015 23:39

Wa-hey! Snow in south Oxfordshire AT LAST!!

ChippingInLatteLover · 03/02/2015 01:37

It has been snowing for a while in the Central South East. It's very very fluffy snow!

I've just been for a walk. It's so lovely, pretty, white & so quiet! Grin

mummylin2495 · 03/02/2015 01:50

ÃŽ wish you could blow some down to Dorset ! I love it

SwedeDreams · 03/02/2015 02:51

OYBBK, we need a new snow angst thread!

And no snow here again. Beginning to hate the weather sites, constant snow taunting and nothing for London! Nothing! Sad
