All of the snow below 500 metres has now melted today. Above 500 metres
there was still 50% cover of the now verified 8cm that fell on Friday,
various remains of snowmen scattered around lower down. So, on our 12 mile
walk today we coincidentally went to the highest point of southern England
at 621m asl. Not nearly as bleak as I have seen it before with puddles and
melting snow. Still enough snow to make snowballs though. Melting now still
as it is raining and here in Haytor we have T +5.8C with 99% RH. Also the
dreaded fog is returning with the thaw.
Going to be interesting up here when that front stalls and later returns
westwards.

Glad you SE'erners had a little bit of snow last night, just boring Sc and
3-4C here :-)

Thanks. Though we only had about a centimetre here in Cranleigh, it took
most of the day for the last lingering traces to totally vanish.

You should move down here - altitude isn't everything...
