Just in case you live in "Eastern England" and have been waxing your
sledges on the back of the forecast; just hang on for a bit. Unless
there's some cooling to come, the forecast looks overblown; just
ordinary rain here at the moment, and also Norwich and Coltishall.

Got to admit, I woudn't fancy myself too near the coast in this situation.

Your view has piqued my curiosity ... could I ask why you say this ?

The Sea is warm (relatively speaking). Of course, if we were in a deep cold
air situation (91, 87, etc. ) , just inland of the coast would be the place
to be, although it would thaw quicker come the breakdown period, compared to
inland areas.
We could have done with this setup a little bit more Easterly to be fair.
Too much Northerly for my liking, cold air missing us.
Talking of my personal experiences, I have seen many instances (in my
childhood sadly ) where inland it snows, and near or around the coasts
precipitation is of sleet or rain.

Aah thank you; I understand now why you said that.
This is one reason why I live by the sea, because of its moderating
influence in both winter and summer. I did not remember that for some
people, this may be thought of as a Bad Thing (-:

Now sure just how far inland you need to be; nearest coast upwind of us
is 25 miles - and it's raining here with a temperature of +4c.

Just not cold enough IMHO - expect sleet, hail and rain showers.

Now, twenty years ago things may have been different....

Now == Not. Damn wine.... (hic)

Air should get colder as \ *if* wind gets some Easterly mechanism in it. Not
surprised it's rain at the moment.

Dan the Man just said some of the showers over east Anglia in the last
hour have turned to snow... and this trend should continue tonight,
with London at risk, too.

Bitterly cold here on the Solent Riviera at +1.5 deg C deg C (LOL).
But at least it will be clear and moony.
