Quite bad to say the least. I'm not sure how often this happens on mainland UK, but we had a ground frost about the same time, which seriously damaged the spuds in a couple of allotments I rent out. I don't recall these conditions locally before at all.

Suggestion of -4C later this week again now too.. at 2m so possibly about -10C on the grass

Thursday night is not looking good frost wise on GFS. I am really hoping that its wrong.

Well the frosty night that GFS had on thursday has thankfully disappeared; the overnight temps are looking much better.

This evenings GFS has the frost back on, right down to -3 in south central England. Time to get the fleece on standby and the potatoes earthed up good and proper.

Something similar to the picture around the villages of Shillingford and Morbath on the Devon Somerset Border - a wide area of low ground between Exmoor and Bampton Down. Beech hedges particulalry affected with new growth singed brown. Min I recorded earlier in the month was +1c with -3.9c on the grass. Low ground around here clearly much colder at night than this hillside.
