Intrigued as to what's causing this: In Southampton just to the west
of you the conditions for the last half hour have ben clear with a few
stratocumulus to the east - I guess it must be these.

As mentioned in a previous thread, snow on the ground here in
Godalming this morning.

What is interesting is seeing the Hogs Back green a few miles N and
also the field on top of a hill about a mile E: the trees on NW side
of Godalming show no snow.

So the boundary of the overnight snow, or residue unthawed in the
shade? Latter more likely.



Just the slightest dusting of new snow in Cranleigh overnight.
