No snow here yet in South Devon but I know parts of North Devon has it and read Manchester Airport closed due to the white stuff. I love it, so do our dogs, and hope we get some soon.

A fair bit fell in Wiltshire yesterday.

Not quite as bad as this….

It's bitterly cold here in Worcestershire, but not a trace of snow, or even frost on the car overnight... I'm keeping my fingers crossed and not going anywhere..!

I think there must be a snow-free corridor going from Devon/Dorset north-west through Worcestershire to Lincoln

We had a couple of inches of snow in the early hours, here in North Cambs., After dense fog yesterday (Sunday), it's still a bit foggy & the temperature hasn't risen above freezing!

Nothing here in East Devon/Dorset border

Nor you, GD13!

Not that it's warm

No snow in our part of the world....North of Lincoln.
Very cold and frosty, also foggy. Lighting the wood burner later...

Just us without, then and we're not even in the same area labradorlinda33!!

Snow in Hertford and North Kent. Thawing at the moment.

3" of snow fell last Wednesday night and now frozen, -8, Sutherland Scottish Highlands..😨

Snow in Somerset, so welcome because so seasonal, but you won’t catch me sliding around! I care too much about staying in one piece for Christmas, thank you!

boops Mon 12-Dec-22 14:31:56

Snowed last night and still here now in South Buckinghamshire

Very pretty but no sun.

West Cambridgeshire rural, we have a bit of snow but landed on solid ice. We also have freezing fog, and VERY heavy white skies.

I haven't been out since last Friday due to the ice. I'm terrified of falling after breaking my ankle as a result of a fall back in June that I'm still having treatment for after surgery.

Merryweather It just shows how localised it is doesn't it? I can't be far from you .!!

Couple of inches Sheffield. Roads ok now though.

Theoddbird Mon 12-Dec-22 13:51:59

Just a sprinkle East Anglia. When I lived in Up State New York we had to dig driveway out every morning and husband couldn't go to work until snow plough had been by. With the wind chill it was minus 50 at one point. It didn't stop life. Eldest went on the bus to school every day...

Flo122 Mon 12-Dec-22 13:36:37

About 5 inches of it overnight here in North Essex. Love it. I have built a snowman

widgeon3 Mon 12-Dec-22 13:35:47

NW Hants/Wilts border a sprinkling overnight and not yet thawed

Azalea99 Mon 12-Dec-22 13:10:42

Certainly an inch in the Hillingdon area. I had my roof redone this year so will pop out later on in hope of seeing it covered in white stuff as proof the new insulation works as well as promised.

ANMI52 Mon 12-Dec-22 13:07:06

No snow here just east of Glasgow, but very cold and frosty. The sun is shining though and the frost is pretty, looking from indoors!!

Bluesmum Mon 12-Dec-22 13:06:40

No snow here in my part of Lincolnshire but very heavy frost and freezing fog, treacherous conditions! Not going anywhere!

Brocky Mon 12-Dec-22 13:05:52

Shinamae. - Float a ball on your pond, at least a small area will be free of ice. Best wishes.

jenni123 Mon 12-Dec-22 12:53:10

yes we had snow in Brighton E Sussex. not too bad in town centre but I think some of the outlying places are worse.

Anotherbee Mon 12-Dec-22 12:47:47

Ilford, Essex, schools closed and our end of the underground railway shut.
