    Came very close last night, my garden is on a hill-side and that was OK - no sign of frost damage on my summer bedding plants. Lower down on the road I had to scrape my car's windscreen. The car's thermometer said 4C (at 6:45 this am) then as I drove down into Guildford it got colder and colder, -1C in Town and looking very frosty.

      Frost on the car and a few of the top leaves of the Nasturtiums seem to have caught it, but mainly a heavy dew and mist.

        Had a grass frost a week or two back, and a heavier ground frost this morning, but no air frost yet.

        First real frost here, it's thawing in the sun now but a very cold start.
        Monday's minimum night temp was 12c, last night it was 0c, what difference!

          No frost here as yet but I don't think it's far off. Temperature is down to 7C today but the high winds and cloud cover will stop any frost.
