~5cm but petering out now.
Glad to be working from home tomorrow.

Good to see some who haven’t seen any snow thus far reporting in. 🙂 It was a relatively damp squib away from elevation around these parts but its hit further south just at the right time of day.
Snow for the last hour or so. Temp took a nosedive to just above freezing pretty quickly. Thin cover on the grass etc.

Snowing here, everywhere has a covering. Lovely stuff.

It's more frozen icy sleety rain and with odd flake but the issue is that the showers are not heavy and when they do come along the temperature rises - the issue is that , this 0.4 of a degree rise in temp (when clouds over for a shower) is enough to turn what would have been pure snow back to a slushy mess of rain/sleet. Sleety shower now passed and temp dropping back to +1c.
Latest radar - notice how light short lived these showers are in the SW England in comparison to the north and north west (Esp N. Ireland and W. Scotland).

In Biggin Hill this evening, snowed heavily from about 8.00 till about 11.00, giving a good couple of cm on all surfaces, including on the roads. Leave there to go back to Croydon, just a little damp slush on car windscreens...another example of the difference elevation makes...
The rain is just about turning into snow at this end, but like the last time is too wet to settle.
The snow turned back to rain about 11pm so there's not much evidence that we've had snow, with the exception of a thin glaze on the greenhouse roof. All stopped now. Was nice while it lasted, albeit too brief!

It’s the end of the world as we know it (and I feel fine) - R.E.M.
Showers are packing into parts of NW of England, snow showers coming through with snow cover. Looks a tricky rush hour for a lot of people.

After several hours of rain, we had a few small flakes, then it stopped. Same as last time and exactly as expected!

In summary, pretty close to the forecast. Given how long it snowed for, probably only 1C away from something more special on all the criteria (uppers and dps etc), but it’ll look pretty when the sun comes up.

Proper winter wonderland.
:D
Slight and it really is a slight covering of slushy snow. Made it easy to clear Mrs N''s windscreen before she heads off to work in a few minutes. You see with the snow came a sharp rise in temp over a few minutes that defrosted her car.

Not sure depths yet, but a significant fall, most since Jan 2010 I think.
I’m shocked how well we’ve done here. At least 10cm I think.
Still coming down heavily but I think the end is nigh looking at the radar.
A 1cm or so 'covering' here, so as expected really

Thursday still looking slightly more promising but that really is the last chance saloon for this pathetic winter.

Total nonevent here. Cycling back last night about midnight the roads were wet with a lot of surface water, and at the top of the hill (100m asl) there was the meagrest of icing sugar dustings in a few patches on the grass, just to show that something other than pure rain must have fallen at some point.Thursday still looking slightly more promising but that really is the last chance saloon for this pathetic winter.
