Returning this evening from a day in central London - where there was
hardly a patch of snow to be seen - this morning's 12 cm snow cover
had hardly compacted at all, following a day max of -0.4°C and a
little aftn sunshine.

The air temperature has been falling fairly steadily since mid-
afternoon, and by 2100 the screen was already down at -8.7°C, with the
grass min exposed on the snow surface reading -14°C.
