A real wintry mix during the day of rain, sleet and wet snow. Turned more to rain now as temps have risen and the wind increases from the SW. However, I expect it to quickly turn wintry again here tomorrow after lunch time and it looks like there could be a few cms of snow overnight into Monday
I think I might well see the kitchen sink up here over the weekend! Turning back to rain and strong winds tomorrow with severe gales or even storm force winds for Saturday, turning back to snow on Sunday. Gotta love this weather lol
