It's pretty much a clear starry sky here. Definitely no snow yet!!

Looking east across to London photo came out better than I thought 

 

I thought all that white was SNOW!! You windup!

[Ice Day]

Back to steady snow again, temps just too high at 2.1c so no settling.  Sad thing is, this is the best 'event' for 3 years here!!!!

[ReindeerMarmalade]

Obviously nothing this far west but I'm so damn pleased some in the region have got falling flakes for the first time this winter!

I know. I wouldn't have got out of bed for this 5/6 years ago. Now I'll stay up most of the night counting the snowflakes

[EJA]

Anyone think it might reach Brighton ....

[Daniel*]

Touch and go for Rotherhithe.

The chunks NE of Cambridge look to be going towards here.

Nice to see some getting snow, don't think I need to get excited living in snowless Thanet

i used to work in Locksbottom and thought it faired quite well for snow. I walk our dog at High Elms near Locksbottom and that's seems to do really well for snow, the other Sunday morning being a prime example.

Same here.  The thing is, everything goes in cycles, next year will be amazing.....or the year after!!

That band has run right across me at the best alignment possible for intensity. Started as dry snow and everything settled for the first 10 minutes. Then it turned sleety for 30 MINS with no accumulation but has turned back to quite heavy snow for the last 25 minutes. Now a good covering but it's just clearing. Should freeze hard and provide a good base for any further showers if they occur. Temp started at -0.1 then rose to 0.9c now back to 0.2c.
