If we can get rid of the talk of the tPV leakage still to happen, we can consider spring is on its way, assuming it stops raining before we reach April showers, which may still be April rainfall

[Mapantz]

There could be a smattering of sleet and snow showers across parts of the region tomorrow and in to Wednesday, even at lower levels.

[knocker]

Certainly very unstable.I had a quick glance at a forecast sounding with cloud tops up to 25. 000 ft

[knocker]

A very sharp termination of the Ac layer to the NW

This little runner on Thursday has been mentioned and noted a few time over the last few days on the national weather and in my head lol. 
 

GFS showing the potential for some northern edge snow. Cotswolds could see something if the jet manages to engage the system and force it far enough north....One to watch  

[CheesepuffScott]

Rain this morning, remained cloudy all day. 

Max 10.2°C at: 17:05... currently 6.2°C

[Nights King]

We have sleet and hail at around 600ft in and around shepton mallet.

Maybe a chance of seeing something later. 

[lettice]

Lovely sunny dry morning
8c, 1003.5 hPa and the Westerly wind is only 5-10mph
We have some sleet showers this evening showing in all the forecasts.

[Dorsetbred]

Must be a little cooler aloft, as this little puppy that cruised through dropped 5mm hail on us, for a while..

...with a 2C drop to follow

[Jasper Foxx]

Bit of a wintery mix in BS13 on the last band that came through. Seemed very sleety. Brilliant sunshine right now though in the gap between the next shower.

[Dorsetbred]

This has a nice look about it..

[Jasper Foxx]

Further sleet in BS13. Nothing to write home about at this point!

[Somerset Squall]

Just had some snow on the back edge of the shower cluster that went through. Temp fell to 2.8°C and it started off as sleet but turned to full on snow. Sadly only lasted a minute and a half but the first snow I have seen of the Winter haha.

[jethro]

It's snowing here, coming down thick and fast. It's the kind of snow where if it keeps up like this, it will settle, despite the wet ground.

[Dorsetbred]

It's raining here, coming down thick and fast. It's the kind of rain where if it keeps up like this, it will settle, despite the dry ground.

[Mapantz]

Not much going on here apart from two light rain showers. Temp maxed at 9.4°C
