Another bitter day here with a bit of everything.Started cloudy and although temperature got down to -4 in early hours it was only -2.7 at 6.45.We then had some snow flurries about 10.30 to 11.45 that gave a very light dusting but from about 12.30 the sun came out and sky was clear but you could feel the temperature start dropping about 2.45 and it was below zero by 4.Currently -1 and like an ice rink out there.Be careful tonight if you venture outside.

I been following a shower tracking down through Norfolk into Suffolk on an Ipswich bound trajectory only for it to run out of puff and disappear 15 miles away. Doh!!

These sort of setups are always lucky dip so not moaning and got to see some falling and settling first thing this morning.

Yes pepping up a bit now #fingerscrossed

Already a little slippery out there by 5pm. Walking home and wasn't the most secure on some steps. The only thing I really dislike about winter is ice, unless it's in a JD and coke.. that's acceptable

You had notable weather again? Twice in the same year..,? 

I did think of you when I saw it snowing at work this morning and wondered if you had snow or if your shield held firm

[Neilsouth]

Not sure if there will be any snow tonight, but gritters are out in force tonight!! Drove past three on my way home. So must be something coming other than just Ice?

[Polaris]

Northern Home Counties late night tomorrow/early doors Sunday, for the pushing in. 
2cm possible

Good luck!

Saw a few flakes this morning briefly, not settling of course but more snow than I saw the whole of last winter in that one small shower!

Currently -1.0c and watching that blob incoming from the NE

Same here, I just want to see some snow and have it settle on the ground for just five mins 

[kumquat]

Radar suggests Herne, Margate, Canterbury? Any TALES to tell?
