Partly cloudy skies and with a good amount of sunshine.

Overnight and early morning temperatures were -3°C, with widespread frost in the morning. The temperature now is -1°C.

No sign of any yet and the weather forecasts keep on changing their mind if we are going to get any and when.

Have you been out today Kat, it's cold

We don't want no this year, we had enough last year though it did make my job a bit easier, I just had to keep going to village hall and putting up notices on the door saying which groups were closed.

Hello Emmily, I have been out today and according to the weather forecast it's -3°C it's going to be another night with the temperatures going down to -4°C but with the chill factor will feel more like -7°C.

Here you are half a world away and it sounds like we are havi ng exactly the same weather.

White cloud covering, with occasional sunny spells.

Temperature now is 1°C but added with a wind chill factor, feels more like -2°C.

Only climbed to just above freezing today..but most of the garden including pond is covered with ice and frost. Been like this for several days and is due to last at least a fortnight they said. I probably only live about a mile and half from the centre of London as the crow flies..and its very unusual for it to be this cold for many days in November..London being a heat microclimate.

But actually really like this really crisp, sparkly weather and bright sun..much prefer it to the nondescript cold damp dark drizzly stuff. But they said Siberian winds are due in a couple of days I heard earlier that somewhere in Wales had broken a record last night with -18C

Under a month now until the shortest day has passed

Beautiful snow (still snowing) since the early hours of this morning and the temperature is 0°C but with the chill factor feels more like -6°C.

30th November 09.04 Marple, Stockport still snowing. Flippin' cold

Can't tell anymore - everything has gone white - can't find my sunglasses!

Greetings from London. It's 10.22am on the 30th. It has been snowing on and off all morning, but it's a little too warm for much of it to settle here in the city. Where I live, about 5 miles north of the centre, there was about 2 inches on the ground when I left home this morning.

I am missing all the early cold and snow in the UK.

We had a tropical storm pass through the islands, Lanzarote was on Yellow Alert and some of the others (Tenerife and Gran Canaria I think) were on Red Alert.

It's all gone back to normal today - 25C - hot sunshine and no wind at all.

There has been a very light fall of and there has been hardly any traffic going through the main routes, it has not been as quiet like this for a very long time and the temperature is -1°C but with the chill factor feels more like -7°C.

We're at the end of the balmy days of November. A front passed through about thirty minutes ago and dropped the temp from 25C to 15C almost instantly. The wind is out of the NNW, and the humidity fell from 70% to 45%.

We're to be in the 15-20C range for a few days, then drop again. At least it will feel a little more like the holidays!

Been snowing nearly all day- only v light but settling. Extremely cold and just about to go out and scrape my car for the journey home. Brrrrrrrr.....

Chicago, 11AM December 1st.

Normally it would be cold and snowy here this time of year, but it's not, really. We've had some light flurries on and off this morning, but no accumulation around here. And at 25°F/ -4°C, I still don't need to break out my winter coat yet.

Lansing,Michigan Noon 1st of December light snow (actually had to brush off car windows)
winds about 5mph Temperature expected to hover around the freezing point all day.

Snowing -- ugh

1st December, East Sussex
