I rang my mum in Frinton, Essex on Easter Day; the snow was laying, so they cancelled the planned Easter Sunday meal. Out along the A12, there were all sorts of bumps and shunts caused by the snow.

Down here in South Wales, the weather forecast warned of showers in rain and show. We drove Llantrisant to Swansea and back, and though there were several heavy rain showers, we didn't see snow. All we had were snow flurries on Easter Saturday.

The wind was blowing a gale from the north, which must have made the wind chill factor 0c (freezing).
