I think there was a slight cover around 20th October that Dave L

Aye, very smooth white looking Crossfell it looked like snow but
could have been very heavy hoar/rime. The top of Crossfell was in and
out of the clouds.
As for tonight maybe, the first signs of the approaching system are
appearing. Of the last few hours the wind has gone from the NE to SW
and is picking up, pressure is falling and so is the temp just below
5C ATM. GDF is reporting similar changes to the wind and a temp just
below 0C. So Snow is certainly a strong possibilty up there and quite
likely for us, assuming the temp continues to drop.
