Residents in Thorpe St Andrew, Norfolk, are being told to prepare for sleet showers and wind gusts reaching 35mph on Sunday, February 15, 2026. The Met Office expects an 80 per cent chance of wintry weather between 8:00 AM and midday.

Temperatures are forecast to feel as cold as -3°C because of the wind chill on Sunday morning. These conditions may cause slippery roads and pavements, which could lead to travel delays and disrupt the Monday morning commute.

The Environment Agency warns that heavy rain and high tides can cause the river to stop draining properly, leading to local flooding. Boaters on the River Yare are also advised to be careful of choppy water caused by the high winds.

Households should secure any loose garden furniture and allow extra travel time as a frost is expected to develop on Saturday night. The sleet is likely to turn into light rain by Sunday afternoon as temperatures begin to rise slightly.
