* I would estimate 4 cm snow on lawns & wheelie bin, and 2 cm on hard
surfaces this morning. *Slight melting 00-02 UTC before frost set in.
Chunks of ice have fallen off trees, mainly clear by 10 UTC, still
covering many shrubs. *Crunchy thin frozen slush in town centre with a
few patches of sheet ice.
* My rain funnel recorded daily rainfall 13 mm once ice melted;
exposure poor, but confirmed by 12 mm in Priestwood (NW Bracknell).
* Thanks for excellent graphs, Roy.
