Default Well did the snow you get, match up to the dire UKMO warnings?

UKMO have brought a whole new meaning to the term "Lying Snow"

Mark my words.

It's pathetic isn't it. Like the opposite of King Canute - the Met
Office standing there with their snow shovels, heaving away the 1mm
slush that has paralysed the country...

The forecast for my area was for sleet or rain overnight.

We got over an hour of snow in the early evening which gave nearly an
inch of lying snow at 100% crisp snow cover for 6 to 8 hours until
overnight rain washed it all away.

The forecast and warnings were understated, not exaggerated, for my
area (South Hampshire).
