Will be interesting to see the updates over the next few days. This map shows snow cover for 30th January 2019.

There was snow in Thurrock yesterday but it has not appeared on the snow and ice chart.

What time or period would that be based on? We had 1-1.5cm all day yesterday but it has mostly thawed in the sun today while we still have 1 cm in our plentiful shaded areas. It's close for depth of snow and location, and I had to compare a few lines between coastal features to confirm, but we're maybe 10+ miles outside the boundary of the reported snow in that image. I suppose what I'm saying is that the image might be slightly conservative but it depends on exactly what time it represents. I dare say there is also the possibility that we just have a touch more than 1cm while those a few miles around us have a touch less than 1cm and so this locality get classed as zero.

Any thoughts or comments?

Can certainly see where the complex low pressure system stalled and passed over the south of the UK a couple of days ago, this pic is from 2nd Feb 2019.

This map shows that France has had a big thaw within 24hrs and after the heavy rains last night the map will show a big thaw for UK too,

The thaw certainly took hold and apart from snowcover in the Scottish Highlands we have some retention across the hilltops in northern England and even a pixel remains indicating that the hilltops just south of Dublin have held on. 

Map date 4th February, 2019.

Looks like the exact same places within the UK have held on with their snowcover for another 24hrs. If it wasn't for the differences, albeit small thaws in places like France, Spain, Germany and Poland it would look like the same data as the previous day! Must be a nippy wind in Europe as well as here?

Map - 5th February, 2019.
