Anyone remember this snow event from 10 years ago for parts of SW?

No wind overnight and this morning. Since the yellow warning started its barely been windy at all. 

[matt111]

With yesterday’s rain it’s already passed last months rainfall total here, which itself was around double January’s total. 

Sunny spells and breezy so far today. 10.7°C

[CheesepuffScott]

A breezy day with some sunny spells. More cloudy now. It reached 10.9°C earlier, currently 9.3°C

[Mapantz]

Max temp of 11.4°C. Some sunny spells and breezy today but not worthy of a warning.

I've marked the graphs showing when the warning was in force.

[CheesepuffScott]

It has stayed dry here apart from a brief shower around 2 hours ago. Still quite breezy out there. 6.9°C

[matt111]

If it doesn't rain between now and midnight I will finally have recorded a dry day this month.

Finally!

[CheesepuffScott]

Morning, drizzly and dull to start off. A low of 6.8°C overnight, it’s 8.8°C

[Azazel]

Getting bored shirtless of this relentless windy/wet weather now. Spring needs to get a move on.

@Weather-history  Didn't recall it as being anything exceptional, so got old book out and found:

4th  snow flurries around 08.00 with wintry showers through pm

5th  very wet snow in early hours, 50%+ cover at 09.00 to a depth of 2cms.  All gone before dark.

I'm also well above February's rainfall total, 79.2mm against Feb's total of 55.2mm.  As I do my rainfall manually and from 09.00 to 09.00, I didn't get a dry day yesterday, 4.4mm fell overnight.

Absolutely foul morning here. Stratus near on the deck, rain and drizzle and wind gusting 45mph

Just had an interesting downpour of very fine rain here, dropped a millimetre in 1 minute. Rain rate of 57.4mm/hr. Temp was up to 13.8°C.

[matt111]

Mostly dry and windy apart from a couple of showers around lunchtime. Sun trying to come out now. 12.9°C

[CheesepuffScott]

Rather dry this afternoon with some sunny spells, just a few light showers earlier. It reached 13.1°C and it's currently 11.9°C

[CheesepuffScott]

A mild night ahead it seems. We had some drizzle within the past hour but that’s it. 9.2°C

[matt111]

Still in double figures here at 10.5°C. 

[Mapantz]

I caught (for the first time in ages) the South Today forecast at 5 to 7 this evening. It's wrong already, regarding rainfall tonight. 

[CheesepuffScott]

It’s a mild start at 10.9°C with an overnight low of 9.6°C. It hasn’t been very wet, just windy

[matt111]

Cloudy with the odd bit of drizzle every so often. 11.6°C

[CheesepuffScott]

It's been an overcast day, dry bar from some drizzle. It reached 13.5°C earlier this afternoon, it's currently 12.9°C

[matt111]

Stayed cloudy and breezy with occasional drizzle this afternoon. Reached 11.7°C, currently 10.8°C

It hasn’t stopped drizzling/raining all day, every time I’ve checked the radar and thought a gap was coming it’s filled in. It’s quite fascinating to rewind the radar and watch what’s happened. A total of 4mm in 15 hours since first light when I emptied the gauge.

Oh, nearly forgot, not a breath of wind which means it’s oddly quiet, for now.

Complete opposite here. Windy all day, but dry as a bone.
