Returning this evening from a day in central London - where there was
hardly a patch of snow to be seen - this morning's 12 cm snow cover
had hardly compacted at all, following a day max of -0.4°C and a
little aftn sunshine.

The air temperature has been falling fairly steadily since mid-
afternoon, and by 2100 the screen was already down at -8.7°C, with the
grass min exposed on the snow surface reading -14°C.

The mind boggles as to how cold it will be by 0800 (which I guess will
be the coldest time of the 'night', just before sunrise, assuming the
weather doesn't change overnight). -4C by car thermometer even in the
Winchester area at around 2245. (Thin lying snow and very icy in
Winchester btw)

More startling was that it was -15°C at 15.00!

Unfortunately (for record-setting purposes) the weather must have
changed - it started getting warmer up there in the evening. Only
-3.7C there at 8am. It's colder here in Yateley at -6C, with about 7cm
of snow still lying (and now frozen solid!)
