Still absolutely pouring with rain here in Maldon, Essex.

I can see this being a massive disappointment! The puddles are huge it’s been raining for hours

So given that this was meant to be an overnight job....has this front sped up and is ahead of schedule? Or have we got more to come from backbuilding/stalling?

According to Dan Holley (Staplehurst on Netweather), reduced upper forcing (whatever that is) means that the front is fading.

Really is interesting the areas North of the Estuary with that wedge of warmer dewpoints and solid rain, the colder undercutting has no doubt gone through with the reports of snow now South of the Thames further East into Kent. 

 Here is hoping Thursday's does not suffer the same fate North of the warmer Estuary. Am surprised about Chelmsford still having rain though as thats fully 14 miles NW of the Estuary

Don't worry - Some of us South of the Estuary are still seeing nothing but heavy rain too

Presumably, that effect still applies up here?

Any ideas as to why areas further west received snowfall e.g Swindon, Hertfordshire, whilst those of us who are further east have drizzle despite being best suited for snow cover?

Lakenheath and Mildenhall have turned West in the last hour and dropped like a stone, there is hope.

Much lighter snow now in Reigate. Radar suggests it's all light stuff from hereon before fizzling out in about an hour or so.  Small amount of settling on cars and grass.

It is snowing in places like Brighton though. There were posters discussing this being a sleety affair for the south but they seemed to have got the lions share. 

Also Ely and Cambridgeshire is flat as a pancake. No hills over there
