Snowed from about 9 to 11 this morning with a temperature of 1°C so big, old penny-sized flakes.
Settled on rooftops, plants, walls, cars and plants and some paths but not roads. 1-2cm only. MetO radar showed briefly orange in a swathe of yellow over us. Brother sent me footage from Hawkchurch, high up in east Devon. Bee-swarm flakes and about a decimetre of lying snow.

A bit disappointing here though about what I expected. Temperatures stayed around the 2c mark for most of the night so it was mostly rain. A bit cooler by morning so we did see some falling snow - just about enough to make a sludgy mess on car windscreens etc. There was a covering of snow on nearby hills, down to around 500/600 feet so a very near miss.

Nearly a couple of inches of wet snow here this morning, still lying in the fields. Elsewhere a revolting slushy mess .😣
 very unusual in this location to get falling and lying snow in November and i can only remember 2 or three occasions in the last 55 years.

Much the same here. I guess looking north there might be around 4 to 5 inches of snow on the tops of the hills such as Bullbarrow Hill I can see from here.
I had to go into Weymouth. Nothing at sea level but the surf is up with the easterly breeze.
Thankfully it's melting and because I was able to warm the car up I won't have the issue tomorrow of clearing a dense frozen mass of ice off the car. Those who haven't gone anywhere today will enjoy an early cocoon of ice tomorrow.

Looking properly snowy on the webcam just now. 

Nice to see folks your way getting snow, even if it's a touch depressing when it's bone dry here and Saturday's snow to rain event will just be rain IMBY.

Interesting, David…just driven up to West Dean…more snow in Chi than in Lavant which is very unusual…as soon as got to Binderton, a winter wonderland and the gardens at West Dean looked stunning in the snow! A most unexpected bonus…The  previous 2 years, the only falling snow I saw down here was in November/ v early December….3 years on the trot? I hope not!

Snowing again in The Peaks with a fresh covering, heading towards Derby and Nottingham but losing it's power!
Just seen that Nottingham weather station had 10cm on Monday and it's still on the ground going into a 5th day. Impressive for the Midlands in November!

I haven't seen any snow here in NW Edinburgh and there isn't any lying snow which I can see.

Yet a maximum snow depth of 1.0 cm has been recorded at Edinburgh Gogarbank over the last couple of days which suggests that there may well have been the odd snow shower which has affected that particular station but which has completely avoided here.

It's not just here in NW Edinburgh which those snow showers have avoided either though because I have also looked at the data for Jerry's local station at Swanston in the south of Edinburgh and there's nothing showing up there at all in terms of any sort of snow depth (even if there's no snow at that station itself, that data will usually show the data for any snow which is lying on the nearby hills but there's no such information there for that either).

The Pentland Hills to my south still look completely green but I have seen the odd whitish patch around in the distance which shows where the odd snow shower might have fallen although there isn't any real depth to that.

The north of Edinburgh, usually always missing out on snow events which occur not just within the rest of Scotland or the UK, but also within the rest of Edinburgh.

Lots of showers piling into NW England - but you've got to go pretty far inland for them to be snow.

I'm guessing the wind coming in straight off a relatively warm Irish Sea plays a big part in this, warming the 20/30 miles nearest the coast.

Here we're getting a mix of hail/graupel and sleety rain.

Apparently there was up to 4" of snow in Okehampton. I missed it as I am in Budapest. Typical really. I bet this will be the only snow of winter as well. Also heard Exeter has some wet snow in the morning. Quite remarkable for snow to fall and settle in SW at lower levels and so early in the season.

There's been wintry showers overnight, both at home and in Manchester city centre. They started out as snow through the evening, but have turned increasingly to rain as the night has progressed.

Another unexpected covering this morning in north Buckinghamshire just west of MK. A small flurry has delivered about 2cm of fluffy stuff. More flurries incoming on the radar.

Some light snow shower showers in the night but temp also rose a bit.  Pavements have an icy glaze with a few snow flakes mixed in .
As it warmed some of the existing snow has thinned.  Went up to 1.3c. Now 0.5c, low -0.5c

Nice little spell, where most (?) got to see falling snow in November, and many had lying snow.

A bit of a disappointing end here, though. Up until a day or so ago, the cold was forecast to stay around until Bert, with yesterday evening and night bringing snow & graupel showers, setting Friday up as a bit of a crescendo of lying snow. 

As it happened, here we got a mix of hail/graupel and rain. I drove into Manchester yesterday evening, setting out in rain. After few miles travelling east (inland) that turned to snow and by the time I got to Manchester it was heavy snow with big flakes (I love driving in that!). Wet, though, and not sticking.

A few very well scattered snow flakes on the car this morning  from a snow shower that somehow managed to survive the journey through the Cheshire Gap, Midlands and London.
I'm claiming it as a day of recorded snow !

Some of the hills in the distance to the South look like the Cairngorms today, white domes with no other features. Imagine they must be the North facing slopes of the Peak District.  

Snow cover around here seems to be until around Bradford then from there North and East it's patchy covering from Monday left as there is here.

There's still a covering, 1-2cm, above 500ft on the Downs north of Chichester this morning (The Trundle, above Goodwood, for those who know the area), and also showing white to the west but very little to the east.

It looks similar, at a distance, for the Isle of Wight; no snow on the eastern downs above Ventnor, but white on the higher ground further west near Carisbrooke.
