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.

NO snow in NE London, no clouds but very cold.

M0nica Sun 11-Dec-22 16:18:29

Thick frost that looks like snow , but no snow in south Oxfordshire.

Had GDs, aged 10 and 5 for a sleepover last night and woke up to snow this morning. Perfect!

We're in South Gloucestershire

Ooh er Patsy!
Snow here in the Scottish Borders

Snowing on the SE London/Kent border. Very fine, but settling and forecast to get 3-4 inches overnight sad

Fernbergien Sun 11-Dec-22 19:13:17

Thick frost then saw 3 flakes in Alton Hampshire.

Granniebags and Debbie58 They have got it bad in Cirencester, haven't they? It's snowing again here (S. Glos)

N/W London just enough to see it’s snowed so far it’s falling very finely.

Damdee Sun 11-Dec-22 19:32:27

Light dusting in my little corner of Surrey. Hope it doesn't get worse. Snow on the roads worries me.

GrannyGravy13 Sun 11-Dec-22 20:07:23

It’s been snowing for the last two hours (big flakes) and settling at least 1-2” S E Essex

Very festive in Lancashire - just had Santa and his entourage delivering selection packs to the local kids following a pre-planned route.
It was perishingly cold waiting for the road train to make its way round but we were able to wait indoors as our local lamp post was a designated stopping point!!
One of local pubs does this every year and the sweets are donated by the locals. They dress up the vehicles, add music and lights and everyone dresses up. Have to say the Grinch was very in character and funny to watch.
They rattle the buckets for the local hospice and always do well with the donations. So along with the snow laying everywhere and the assistance to get one of the vehicles up the hill - it was a little tuk-tuk!! It was all very good humoured and fun for the kids (and GP's)

We had all the family over yesterday and the weather obliged with just enough snow for the grandsons to scrape together some very small snowballs - perfect timing! Today we’ve just had a heavy frost, which made our walk in the local park feel very seasonal.

Margiknot Sun 11-Dec-22 20:31:31

Snowing now - lightly- in hertfordshire.

rubysong Sun 11-Dec-22 20:37:26

South east Cornwall. We were out earlier and came home about 6.30pm. Zero degrees but no snow. It was icy this morning and we expect it to be icy in the morning.

Patsy70 Sun 11-Dec-22 20:40:49

Still snowing here, but not as much as you claretjan! 😊

Aprilgran Sun 11-Dec-22 20:49:58

We have snow settling in Central London. A rare sight nowadays and so pretty.

LilyoftheValley Sun 11-Dec-22 20:50:23

We are in Gloucestershire and have masses of snow. Abandoned cars, motorway and road accidents, blocked roads and pavements like glass bottles! Really dangerous here.

Oopsadaisy1 Sun 11-Dec-22 20:53:19

We are in Lanzarote.

We should be (by now) in Bournemouth Airport but it closed due to snow.

So an extra day in the sun! 🌞😄
Although to be honest most of the day was spent in the airport waiting for some information. 🙁

Let’s hope we can get home tomorrow.

Sparklefizz Sun 11-Dec-22 21:11:37

Oops We are in Lanzarote.

Put your vest on to come home. It's JOLLY COLD !!!!!!!
