No snow on the ground around Chichester but, this morning, you couldn't get over Goodwood.

Some of the snow has thawed a little but still a lot on the side roads and lots of the slushy dirty stuff too. Is now going quite cold again (and rather misty too). Oldham.

Will definitely be very icy tomorrow morning methinks.

Well here in the Medway area of Kent it started chucking it down after 9pm last evening. I wasn't feeling that well so went to bed at 8.45 and no sign then .
Got up at 6.30 and boy it was a white world out there ,at least 4-5 inches of the white stuff. Even the whirley line that I forgot to put away was sporting several cm of snow on each line.

The tortoise is still asleep tho in his house on the patio and missing all the fun!!

It was still snowing when I went to bed at 1 o'clock this morning.

Sun is shining brightly. So if it freezes tonight it will be a skating rink tomorrow.

Council do not grit the side roads.

Took Suzy out for a walk but she was not really that interested as the snow came up to her knees. Tomorrow she will have to do make do with the garden.

It started snowing in west Midlands around 2pm. EDIT Yesterday 4th Feb.
snow was about four inches deep (according to bro-in-law).
Temps have gone up during night and today and now most of the snow has gone.

sky still looks rather white though, so here's hoping that temps. don'tdrop again.

Mildred, enjoy your celebration meal. Enjoy the chat too.
Good luck to your OH for his drive to Scotland.

Take care of yourself Julia.

Ruddy snow :-P

Its quite thick here in Essex (pardon the pun) :-D :-D :-D

I'm gutted as we were going for a meal for my Aunts birthday. Its been cancelled as its too dodgy driving out there, & my Dad is unsteady on his feet at the best of times :-(

Also missing seeing my cuzzy who I missed seeing a couple of years ago due to plans being scrapped because of snow :-|

Good luck to my hubby as later today he's got to pick his lorry up to drive to Scotland for a job tomorrow :-0

Someone do a sun dance please ;-)
