October snowfall: London had its first October snowfall since 1934
Snow and sleet also fell in northern Scotland and south-east England as temperatures plunged to -4C in parts of Britain.
Football matches were either postponed or abandoned at Luton, Northampton, Walsall and Wycombe because of the weather conditions.
Sky weather presenter Denise Nurse said: “It’s highly unusual to have snow in October - we haven’t seen October snowfall in London since 1934.
“But today will be cold, bright and frosty. Snow this afternoon will mainly affect Northern Ireland, Wales and the north of England. It’ll also be breezy, feeling almost blizzard-like.
Cheers for that Sky News :o)

I love snow! That’s one thing I’ll miss about not being in Dunedin
…Palmy never gets snow
Wellington gets no snow - sigh. One of my best days ever was when I was living in Chch & it got snow bound for a week. Although my friend in Wisconsen at the time was not impressed as they get snow bound for months!
