I'm up in Oxfordshire at the moment. Here in Thame apart from dying
snowmen there's nothing. However, a few miles away on the Chilterns it
still looks white above Chinnor - as of this morning...
A bit of house reconnaissance work around Cobham/Oxshott/Claygate way
revealed on the most hardy of snow patches remained today...
Still almost complete cover on the higher parts of Cleeve Hill (just NE
of Cheltenham).

Some patches in the shade south of Basingstoke, and the occasional bit
of compacted snow where it had been cleared away on the hills above
Liss (Hants), but otherwise none round here. I suspect that if that
low had produced even sleet/wet snow, rather than rain (and given it
did not too far north or west of here, it wasn't too far from
happening) there'd still be quite significant cover over large parts
of southern England.
