Default West Moors/E.Dorset Fri. 3rd .. dusk falling / icy night ahead

.... (1600Z): going to be an interesting night if you are " out and
about " round here! There's lots of compacted snow (thick cloudy ice)
on paving and minor/estate roads, and the temperature has failed to
rise above the melting point today: currently -3.0°, after a
short-term maximum of -2.6°C. In thick mist here (adjacent fog towards
Hurn). Snow cover has continued to settle down, and now averages out
at 4 cm (from 6 cm 09Z).

And I've just had a gas bill - whoopee.

Martin.
