It's been raining for several hours in Birmingham.
Admission.  I'm actually not that fussed about cake.

Rain in Reading. Cold rain. There were some sludgy bits in it first thing this morning, & then it was just rain. Sometimes it has stopped for several successive seconds, but mostly it has just fluctuated in intensity. :(

A dank dark drizzly & chilly day.

Do not clench. It only makes it worse.

Snowing on and off all morning here. Not laying at all though.
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

The great thing about cycling in these conditions is that the motons are far less aggressive than usual  :)

Sleet in Suffolk but I don't care as I'm (like a swallow) just about to leave for warmer climes...

I believe it is a balmy 3 degrees over there just now.   ::-)

Very cold here now and I can see over to the North York Moors (in between snow showers) and snow has laid there. Sunny here now though.

Sun has now popped out.  :thumbsup:

It's gloriously bright and windy here. Perfect drying weather.

20 minutes ago I set off for a walk through the fields. From my south-facing front door it looked gloriously sunny. As soon as I saw the big black clouds being blown from the north I scurried back indoors. There's now sleet falling. Heavily.

On my way back from Cardiff I went through a light snowstorm, a field-whitening hail storm and a full-on blizzard.

Then the sun came out.
It is simpler than it looks.

Apparently we did have a little snow in South Ken sometime this afternoon.  Our technician goes out onto our balcony for a fag break every so often, and noticed it.  It was clearly not quite in the blizzard category. ;D

Set of from home at 1430 in 6 degrees and sunlight. Arrived at my daughter's school at 1530 in 1 degree and loads of wet snow. Got back home to 6 degrees and sun again.

Must be very localised, as there has been a complete lack of SNO south of the A27.

Indeed, I was way up north - my daughter's school is in the Downs not far from Petersfield.

Once I was back south of the Portsdown Hill, Wickham line, it was back to the usual warm microclimate.

Pathetic snow in Bournville.  Not very impressive at all.

A thin layer in Croydon, until the cars wear it away from the roads.

It looks quite pretty, but Talisker isn't impressed, which I guess is understandable!
