Hi Ken.
Surprising thin snow cover here, totally unexpected as we had light snow, then rain, then heavy sleet and wet snow around 0230, so quite a surprise when pulling back the curtains.
Decent cover on the tops around the village but the further west you go, the less there is and Garrowby Hill had about the same as us in the village.
In some ways I'm surprised it wasn't an all snow event as the max overnight was 0.4.
