We had a brief spell of wet snow which barely covered surfaces up until about 6.30am. Now rather moderate rain and warming up. T 2.1 D 1.4 and rising steadily.
After a sunny morning with temp peaking at 1.4C at 1.21pm it suddenly turned foggy around 2.15pm and the temperature plummeted to now -0.8C. Feel bitter.
One wonders given the volume of marginal rain late yesterday (I've recorded over 35mm in the past 24 hours) what sort of snow quantities we would have had in a pre warming era... In the end we had about 2 inches here in my part of East Sussex which as others have said exceeded anything we had all winter last year.

getting on for 4 hours non stop moderate to heavy snow here at Silver Hill Salehurst East Sussex. 3 inches on top of what was left of last nights slushy inch. so a much bigger event here now than last night. 105m asl
Despite the radar saying rain it has been heavy snow here since 6pm and everything is white albeit a slushy covering where it has been wet, We have some elevation at around 105m at silver hill near Salehurst. Unexpected bonus.
The heavy patch that just went through Robertsbridge gave more snow than the "main event" yesterday. Everything suddenly white. Snowing less heavily but moderately here at Silver Hill near Salehurst.
