Residents and commuters face heavy snow and rain across East Anglia

Shocked residents are asking "what the frig" is happening as an East Anglia wintry clearing follows a morning of heavy snow.

Norfolk reels from East Anglia wintry clearing

The British public is reeling from a weekend of wild weather extremes as the Met Office confirms that persistent rain, sleet, and snow are finally moving out.

Forecaster Liam Eslick warned that while conditions are gradually improving, the transition has left many locals in a state of total disbelief.

"Heavy snow in Norfolk! Bright warm sunshine yesterday lol!" one resident exclaimed, baffled by how two days could be so different.

In Bicester, homeowners were equally stunned after a Saturday spent working in the garden turned into a Sunday morning white-out.

"Me this morning: What the frig is all this?!" one local vented, though they admitted things were finally starting to brighten up.

Essex rain persists during East Anglia wintry clearing

While some are hunting for snow shovels, others are simply drowning in yet another day of relentless February downpours.

"Still pouring down in Essex," one frustrated resident reported, as the Met Office warned of blustery showers and longer spells of heavy rain elsewhere.

The geographical lottery has left some feeling short-changed, with Edinburgh locals noting that the promised overnight snow failed to materialise.

However, not everyone is miserable about the murky outlook, with one hardy soul insisting there is "no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing."

As the cold holds on in the east, milder air is pushing into the west, promising a slightly less icy end to the day.

For most, the focus remains on the horizon, hoping the afternoon delivers on the promise of a final, drier clearance.
