A few miles east of Stratton there is snow too but it's of a wet and horrible nature.

A nightmare for schools because will it or won't it cause disruption? They will be damned if they close and damned if it becomes tricky on the roads and a bus goes into a ditch or hedge. Snow is a rare event here.

Yep, 2 inches here now and still coming down thick, many major routes blocked with stuck lorries

Heavy sleet with the odd snowflake. I'm surprised as SST is still over 14C.

That streamer came to nothing here, so we're just left with the 1cm covering of graupel from earlier in the evening. It froze overnight and everywhere looks very beautiful.

Interesting, David…just driven up to West Dean…more snow in Chi than in Lavant which is very unusual…as soon as got to Binderton, a winter wonderland and the gardens at West Dean looked stunning in the snow! A most unexpected bonus…The  previous 2 years, the only falling snow I saw down here was in November/ v early December….3 years on the trot? I hope not!

Up to 4 inches now, Princetown must be up to 6 I would think.

Will miss here and I wonder if it will ever snow significantly here again .I suppose paying the price for those three decades (60-80's) of constant N.Sea snow showers and blizzards! Still, my grandson at Uni in Brighton has got snow this morning. And I visited him there yesterday and told him it wouldn't snow there this spell!

Nice to see folks your way getting snow, even if it's a touch depressing when it's bone dry here and Saturday's snow to rain event will just be rain IMBY.

I've been surprised with this snowfall. 

Borderline snow event (started as rain) but notable with its intensity at times (for this part of the UK)

We've had a couple of light flurries so far this morning, nothing really worth mentioning but what IS worth mentioning is that the Met Office has updated their yellow warning and pushed it further north past our area, interesting.

It is a very cold day for November though, currently 0.7c, guess we are in the cold air but under the cloud shield, so no solar warming. The flurry has stopped.

Final total 4.5 inches, lots of trees down now, still carnage on the roads.

Best final since 2018
