The temperature only rose above 0C at Newquay at around 09:00 (at St Mawgan that is) so they almost certainly contain snow. Just need a bit more north in the wind to bring them ashore.

Snow flurries now clipping the Land's End peninsula. Only very light.

E.g. http://www.greatbosullow.net/

Temperature now near, or just below freezing, across much of Cornwall
0.5C Penzance, 0.2C Lands End, 0C Newquay, -1C Culdrose etc.

It's not often the wind aligns itself so well to bring the cold right down with virtually no modification by the sea.

My daughter keeps looking at the street lamps, though going by the radar it's a bit of a lost cause!
