Snow on the beaches here in Blackpool this morning, with a rainbow visible over the Irish Sea. About 1.5cm on the ground which is surprising as it was hailing when I went to bed and my car thermometer (I know, never too accurate) said 5 degrees as I reached the coast.

[Methuselah]

Dry and cloudy with light NNE wind, 2C...

[Thundery wintry showers]

Very picturesque in Cleadon- 5cm snow cover, Cb cells floating around (mainly to the west) and plenty of sunshine, and chances of a few more snow showers making it across to the east coast. Temp 1.1C, so probably a very slight thaw in the sun to come this afternoon but I doubt it will shave more than a centimetre off the overall snow depth.

Temp 1.1C, so probably a very slight thaw in the sun to come this afternoon but I doubt it will shave more than a centimetre off the overall snow depth.

It`ll thaw in the sun even below 0c with a dusting or just a covering ,

a thick snowcover it won`t.

On a tin roof facing the sun it started thawing at 9.30am at -1c

Had an extra slight covering last night for a shower which made it this far.

Min of -2.1c now a very cold 0.6c with a S/SW wind coldest I think I`ve recorded from that windflow so far.

Sunny clear blue stunning winters day though.

All thawed on the steep field facing the sun already,not enough snow.

No thawing in the shade.

[reef]

The temperature is already starting to fall again after reaching 0.1C for literally a few minutes. Currently -0.4C and still completelty clear and sunny. No thaw of the lying snow whatsoever still, about time we had a cold spell coinciding with the winter solstice!

[sunny scunny]

Sunny and cold with light winds.Current temp is 0c.

Hardly any of the snow has melted here either,so still around 6cm.

[BornFromTheVoid]

Slight thaw here at the moment, 0.4C with cloud rolling in. Looks like it's been snowing just west of here for the last 2 hours but it's slowly inching closer

[SP1986]

A bounding day indeed.

Sunny with perfectly clear skies, 4.2C currently

Overnight minimum: 0.0C

Its going to get really cold tonight, brrr

[conor123]

A clear night last night with severe frost and ice despite not being as cold as recent nights (-2.1c, though that was colder than much of the region with stayed nearer the 0c mark).

A very sunny morning though a sheet of cold to the south now as the Power Station several miles away is causing enough cloud to now block out the sun a lot of the time.

Temp 2.9c

[Andy Bown]

Cloudy and misty with light snow and a possible ice day as the temperature is still below freezing at -0.3c and humidity 92%. There is half an inch of snow on the ground from last evening's showers.
