Don't panic! The UK radar network does not pick up precipitation that is happening on mainland Europe and if we look at the Sat24 latest radar return we can see the snow band over the Low Countries is just departing the Dutch coastline on its journey towards us. Unfortunately their radar app doesn't distinguish between rain/sleet/snow, but it will be snow when it gets here in the early hours of Sunday.

You’re in a good spot to get clobbered with snow, but not sure it’ll reach Cambs,  good luck!

The Weather Channel app has a free global radar that shows precipitation type. Can see the snowfall (blue) over the Low Countries:

love the dry snow and how fast it settles gone from not laying to full cover in 45 mins in eindhoven

[North Easterly Breeze]

Just clicked “geo zoom” on the netweather live radar and it’s taken me to Inverness. Could be a long night...

[Stu_London]

quite a lot of sleet appearing in kent on the latest NW radar - 

probably those dewpoints pushing in from the low countries - don't think evap cooling could push the air temps down that much.

I’m just south of you at Sandy. Hopefully it’s on it’s way.

[James1979]

Even starting to settle. 

[Snowonder]

Some big wet flakes mixed with the rain now in Bedford. At least it is something. 

 

 

[joespontiac]

Well I wasn’t expecting it to start until after midnight but...

[Ben M]

Temperature slow to drop here but that was the forecast, a slow and steady drop. Currently at  5C and wind definitely picking up now with rain on and off.
