I think Thursday and Friday could throw a few snowy surprises for many. Thursday less marginal, by Friday temps and dewpoints might only allow snow to higher ground.

Doesn’t look much to me on the models. 

I think there will be some showers around on Thursday evening just not too significant probably 1-2mm of accumulation so another light covering possible in the West of the region.

[James M]

Not much of the band left to go now. At least it has given a dusting. Going to be very icy tomorrow 

[Weather-history]

Shallow fog and -1.2°C

[severe snowstorm]

I've just woken up and it's not the sharp frost i was expecting here.Temp still above freezing at 1C, but is dropping slowly.

From the mod thread from a london perspective and should have been in the moans.

Just shows how regional bias rules in there.

"I personally think we are a long way off cold.  Record mildness is possible early next week; 14C/15C in the south.  We have to be honest, the chase for this mediocre cold snap has been tiring and demoralising.  The experts on here as well as the Met Office got it badly wrong.  January’s CET will come in above average (maybe significantly so) to follow December’s exceptional mildness.  Can February save this winter from joining the scrapheap of poor winters?  At the moment, it’s mainly hope that is keeping me going."
