patchy cloud and 1.3c after heavy snow this morning left 3 inches of snow.

[johnholmes]

yes the heavy rain certainly did the trick for lowering wet bulb temperatures and zero C isotherm, sveral places in your area, Somerset Wiltshire seem to have had a decent fall of snow. It was reasonably well predicted by the UK Fine Mesh model as far out as Friday.
