Yep, Cold and dry in London, chances of snow at home in Cornwall = 0%

Chances of me sledging and driving round my fields if it does = 100%

heavy falling snow near northampton and was settling too and now it has moved south to my home where there is a light spinkling on the florbut stil cold outside and drizzling/snowing.

I have predicted since april/may that we will get a cold winter with lots of snow. My predictions may be true!

Had about 2-3 inches of snow in Warks- started to melt quite quickly though. I booked the day off work to dismantle and move a kitchen in the Hilux- could of done without the snow snow hampering the job though! Must admit I'm amazed to see so much lying snow in October- and they were the BIGGEST snowflakes I've ever seen.

We had snow on the roads this morning, no sooner had I passed a car whos driver had been unable to stop before sliding, quite forcefully, into a skip, than I myself fell pray to the rubbish road tyre/compacted snow combination that sent me sliding towards a junction with a main road. :?

It had all gone by lunchtime though, and its raining now  :'(

It snowed in london in October for the first time since 1932 or something, I missed it as I was in my hotel room watching spooks.

The nice irony was it snowed on a climate change summit at the commons.
