The way the bbc regional depicted this ppn this evening was to move through south wales apart from the occasional fragmented shower then a predominantly clear night bar a few light showers of rain in early hours (3am onwards) but I'm not sure after they said mainly rain and hail al day then many saw wet snow earlier.
