Biting temperatures in north London saw rain become sleet become snow and parts of NW3 given a brief dusting of the white stuff.

Snowflakes fell on the edge of the Heath, as captured by the Ham&High, while this newspaper can also attest to a smattering of snow in the High Street.

Unfortunately for winter weather-lovers, the Met Office are not predicting much more snow as yet: It looks set to warm up a touch over the weekend, with temperatures stabilising at around five degrees.

Did you get caught in the snow and get a snap or two? Send any pictures to sam.volpe@Archant.co.uk or editorial@hamhigh.co.uk
