Sleety snow here now in Godmanchester, and windy.

[Ste L]

Snow and Wind here, 20-50p snow in Goodmayes near ilford and Chadwell Heath, cars covering, very nice. 0c here,

[doctordoolittle]

Great to hear people getting snow. Here in Tunbridge we are getting a light sleet. Drove down from Orpington, gor really excited that we were going to have epic journey back as it was practically a blizzard. Sadly it all turned sleety on the M25.

Fingers crossed.

[Reefseeker]

I don't get it, temp 2.2c and dp -0.7 but it's chucking it down with rain:(

Few flakes blowing about here. Mainly sleety rain though. Feels very cold.

People talk about dew points far too much here. Your scenario is absolutely possible.

[Dexter29]

The snow is becoming more and more powder like!

Unreal to think 2 hours ago it was heavy rain.

Settling really well here. My drive is covered and now the roads are starting to appear white.

[steveinsussex]

Still raining

[Andy H]

Been snowing since 4pm here but just a dusting if that! Not settled on any roads, or paths, just a bit on top of cars

[john mac]

Still sleety here some snow slush on cars

[kevey]

Starting to settle on pavements now.

[East Herts Snow]

My road is bone dry!

Does it ever rain or snow in Suffolk.... ;-)

Is Suffolk considered the driest county in the UK? We visit Orford a lot and the soil is really sandy around there.

[Matty J]

All snow here now and settling readily on everything bar the paths and roads.

If it keeps up for a few hours this might not turn out too bad an event!

[SMU]

Tonight will be all about 2 things

A bit of elevation -

PPN intensity rates- you will need to be in the Green echoes on the radar to get that ZDL level right down to the ground ( unless Herts which is already there )

Nowt here other that rain & sleet & a few snow flakes- as we are at ground level --- I hate Sh*tehithe.

[High Altitude]

Very heavy snow.

Temp 1.0

DP 0

[Gary_R_Walker]

The bad news is that it's bone dry here and +4c. The good news is I have just found a twenty pound note in the pocket of my old tracky bottoms.

[Lampostwatcher]

Heaviest snow this winter

Temp 0.9c dewp 0.4c
