Default South Coast Snow showers off a SW wind

I never thought I'd see the day... 100% snow cover on the
Lee-on-the-Solent beach and now, snow showers forecast for the Central
South coast (Solent) with a SW wind off the English Channel. Well
that's what's happened - and we've just had the first snow shower -
off what seems to be a light S-SW wind. The temperature's been below
freezing for several hours already tonight so the bit that's fallen
has settled.

Snow in the Scillies too... so quite apart from last night's snowfall
in the London area, this is some cold pool we are under!
