Default Brussels 7 cm snow cover

Not much more snow in Brussels after midnight last night. Footprints I left on the lawn when I went out to measure the snow before I went to bed were still visible this morning !

Rainfall equivalent since the snow started around 22.00 local time yesterday: 6 mm at Uccle and 3 mm at Brussels Airport. I am between the two.

It has been snowing steadily again since about 09.00 local time this morning - mostly quite light with small to medium-sized flakes. Temperature -0.9°C at Uccle an hour ago.

Now 7 cm snow on the short-grass lawn in front of my flat.

No serious problems reported on the roads in Brussels or at the airport.
