Just woke to best covering of this cold spell and it is still lightly snowing now. Will take a measure when I get up but looks like a good 4-5cms overnight.
Coming down thick and fast in Southend, temp up slightly compared to past 48 hours as the wind has changed to a more easterly direction, has definitely helped pep up the snow though overnight.
We have had pretty much constant snow today with the radar showing nothing, now it's pepped up nothing falling from the sky, all very odd, I guess it's a case of lamppost watching!
Only chance for those of us in South Essex is later from around 6pm onwards when the wind swings round to the north and we do not have the wind from the south east which has absolutely killed it here so far today. You watch later the temperature will drop but nothing will fall from the sky!
