Dusting of snow here. Just under 1cm which equates to 0.8mm rain I've melted in funnel


Enough of a dusting in Blackheath to wake up to and make me trumpet "Wahay!" on opening the blinds. As the song goes "One day like this a year will see me right". Clearly from this anecdote a) I'm easily pleased and b) have a low mental age...!

There was absolute pandemonium outside my house earlier this morning. I wondered what on earth it was and ran to the window to investigate to find a dozen schoolkids virtually beside themselves with excitement of playing in the snow. It was good to see such innocent enthusiasm though heaven knows how they'll react if we get a decent fall here. Amazing what a two-year snow drought can do.
The 1cm of snow was all but gone by 1pm to leave a bright, occasionally cloudy day
