It's dropping stuff on Wales and the Midlands, with the South East affected by early morning. The biggest threat appears to be the freezing conditions tomorrow morning.

Had a very light sprinkling, of snow, just enough to put a bit on top of the bin, nothing like your pictures.

My wife has just telephoned me from Blackburn, it seems it snowed and then froze overnight and it has taken her 45minutes to thaw out the car to go shopping....the moral of the story is do not go shopping and spending money especially in inclement weather.
