Been snowing here in northiam for over 3 hours,few flakes,then a moderate burst,eases off,then back to moderate,sadly though the ppn is dying off,and the channel appears to be having a rest,really hoping it peps up quick again,just dont want anything to melt lol

My garden now

[95 Degrees]

Nice covering of about 2-3cms here in Angmering, I'll definitely take it, considering that 2014-2017 was so abysmal for snow other than one minor snowfall in Feb '15 that melted by lunchtime. With that said, this is definitely no historic cold spell, but still the best in five years, and Yesterday until Friday is certainly still a very cold period.

Hahaha! Went to bed thinking I'd be stuck in between those two streamers with just a smattering and woke up to this! (Anyone know why that helicopter was hovering above Capel hill this morning?)
