Hi Nick, I’m in the valley between old coulsdon and farthing downs on it snowed for a small time but has gone. Walking up to old coulsdon (185m) there is a similar picture to the one you posted. It looks like the cut off was around 170m. Fine margins, but shows just what a difference elevation can make even locally.

Last night it got down to -8.7c here and with some high level cloud coming over itis now up to -2.9c. I've just been looking at my weather station data for the week and it can most definately be said to be an icy week. I've had just 7 hours above freezing since last sunday. 6.5 hours were on Monday where i had the highest temp of the week at +0.6c.There was 1/2 hour above freeze from 12:40 -13:10 on Tuseday and since then it has not been above freezing. The lowest temp was thursday night/friday morning when it got down to -10.9c. Today marks the 7th consecutive day of lying snow and unlike other events, the cover is still much as it was on Sunday, even the trees still have a think coating on branches and foliage. It will end tomorrow/monday but Winter is far from over, we are only 17 days in, and ive a feling there is a lot more to come.

the weather warning this evening was for snow from west country where it would be heavier to a light dusting as it moved further east. those hard lines on the warnings are for guidense, in reailty it's a fuzzy line so showers showing up in baisingstoke and littlehampton might be expected. It does appear though that it might come a bit further east so there might be a few lampposts being watched in hampshire and west sussex, possibly west surrey.
