One resident in Stowmarket pictured the snowfall in his garden this morning.

Snow has also fallen in Thorndon in Mid Suffolk today which started to settle.

Speaking previously meteorologist at the East Anglian-based forecasters Weatherquest, Adam Dury said: "We have a band of low pressure coming in on Wednesday night and that might just turn to a sleet and snow mix on Thursday morning.

"There is a chance of some snowfall but it is likely going to be falling onto quite wet surfaces - so chance of accumulation is very low."

It will be a cold and frosty start for most but generally remaining cloudy for most of the day with some outbreaks of rain sinking southwards.

Police are also warning drivers to take care in the wintery conditions.

In a tweet Stowmarket police said: "Please take care driving today, make sure your windscreen and other windows are fully clear before driving.

"Might be lucky enough to build a Snowman later."
