[AWD]

Frequent hailstorms throughout the day today. Some of the hail rather notable too.

[Nights King]

We had some wet snow showers last night while I was out and about at a house party in the village. nothing much but it did at least look nice.

Did you have any snow around 4-5am Mullender? I was woken by heavy rain but thought higher up would have a chance. I guess you may only know if it settled and is still there when you wake up lol !

 

just seen this, yes I was up around 2am and we had some wet snow sticking to cars a little etc but gone fairly quickly

[Dorsetbred]

Bright refreshing start to the day with current temperature of -1.4°C

Had heavy wet snow shower here in Frome yesterday at about 12.30 ish p.m

 

This morning woke to find a couple of bits that must have fallen and froze in the hard frost we had last night. Not talking about a covering but few flakes on the brickwall.

[knocker]

Now have 8/8 As with ragged St and slight rain in last hour. Wind getting up with southerly 25 mph gusting 40.

In reference to someone's post the other day asking if it has all dried up on the levels, saw this reply on twitter from the 'FLAG' twitter page;

yes, water is receding. Still plenty on the moors but roads open & recovery phase well underway #neveragain

[Mapantz]

8mm of rainfall yesterday, now it's on it's way back. Currently 11℃ and spitting.

Maybe some warmth at the weekend?!

[Andy Bown]

Really interesting morning out working with the frontal cloud to the East all morning and mostly clear to the West throughout too, although changes did occur more notably from around 10.00 as an ENE breeze picked up bringing that frontal cloud back West and lessening the effect of the clearer conditions.

[ARTDEMOLE]

Cloudy.  8.6c.

[Dorsetbred]

I'm sure I've seen this rain before

Something else about the levels... This time a picture of what it's still like over there. This picture was taken on 22/3/14, so, on Saturday:

[Dorsetbred]

Looking icy out there from overnight rain which has frozen, possible black ice this morning in some areas.

[ARTDEMOLE]

Foggy in parts. 3.1c....

[Mapantz]

The sun is trying to break through but it's still a chilly 7℃ out there.

[Andy Bown]

I really was not expecting dense fog this morning and once that had lifted into low cloud it took until nearly 11.00 for the sun to break through hazily!

 

Still very hazy now with some weak sunshine among the murk and what I think could be some decent convection taking place but it's not easy to see.

[A.J]

interesting 06z run, both GFS and NMM hi-res for more eastern/northern parts of the region.....definite chance of seeing some wet snowfall this evening and early tomorrow morning

[lassie23]

You might get snow tonight, it's 3.5c in London but raining.
