Dave.
I don't think the areas will be specified because there won't be any.
We've been here many times before.
You need high resolution models to get a feel for where the showers are
going to be off an easterly when most of the snowfall generation comes
from "Lake effect" style snow. None of the Met Office hi-res models will
be running out further than Wednesday which might explain the reticence
towards pin-pointing the specific areas.
If you look at today's GFS 00Z T+18 and compare this with the radar

you can see how the GFS (lower resolution global model) really isn't
getting much of the showers coming inland north of the Wash. To be fair
the channel showers and those to the south-east of Ireland have been
resolved.
This could be a reason as to why they can't pick actual locations just
yet.
