Other areas around the country have also recorded far warmer temperatures than usual.
Forecasters predicted a few days ago that both Norfolk or Suffolk wouldn't see any snow this festive season.
A spokesman for the Met Office said: "Current indications are that Christmas Day will be a little colder than over the weekend but will be dry so we are not expecting any snow across East Anglia during the Christmas period."
