Temperature 3.5c here now. Just need more of a drop. Rain has turned more sleety but probably going to have to wait for the temperatures to drop further  (expected) before falling snow here.

Gradual thaw of earlier lying snow seems to have halted and far less drips (i.e temperature is dropping) and an intense shower incoming, hope this will be a good, may be my first ever thunder snow? wahoo!

Had heavy graupel here too which turned to snow for about 5 minutes before clearing very slippery out there now.

A pretty impressive evening of thunder, lightning, hail and then snow here.

Lightning so wild it kept knocking out the power. Hope for more snow showers overnight.

Shower after shower is falling as rain and/or hail.

 

I apologise for being negative but this is a little pathetic when areas at lower elevation and towards the coast have seen some snow.
