Even as a retired professional the speed at which the snow has disappeared since about 1030 am has surprised me. Just very small patches left in the shade. My back garden was 95% covered with 3-4 cm around 8.15 am and now has just some patches, 1-2 cm in the shade. Had it been December into late January it would have been very different.
