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.

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

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.

Snowing now - lightly- in hertfordshire.

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.

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)

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

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

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

Thick frost then saw 3 flakes in Alton Hampshire.

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

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

grumppa Sun 11-Dec-22 16:17:53

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

BlueBalou Sun 11-Dec-22 16:10:34

It’s the same here Sparklefizz, lethal under foot because of the ice. I haven’t been out other than to fill the bird feeders, DH walked DDog who absolutely loves the snow.

Shantygirly Sun 11-Dec-22 13:29:03

None in Bexhill on Sea as yet, but the sky is looking a bit threatening!

lixy Sun 11-Dec-22 13:25:56

No snow here in Bedfordshire but thick frost again, still there now. Patchy fog drifting through too just to help. Still minus 4 just up the road in Cambridge. Not great driving conditions!

Hope the snow/slush/ice goes soon for everyone.

Grammaretto Sun 11-Dec-22 13:20:44

Deep and pretty here on the Midlothian/Scottish Border hills.
