Dartford is also said to have had a touch of the white stuff.

Others are reporting sleet and wintry showers.

The unusually cold weather snap is already leaving some reaching for the heating dial.

The Met Office weather forecast predicted wintry showers of rain, hail, sleet and snow for the region today, dying away through the course of this evening.

But we're not through the woods, with more wintry showers developing through tomorrow.

But independent forecasters Weatherwave said it was unlikely to be snow, and was probably fine hail.

But if you thought snow was a first for Kent at this time of year, think again.

On April 10 2006 there was up to 12cms of snow in parts of the county.
