7c here. No chance for Cardiff tonight.
Went for a walk earlier around Heath, actually felt mild. What an awful winter for us! But saying that though we get warmer and sunnier summers! ☀️

Reports coming in thick and fast on my Facebook feed now that rain has turned to heavy snow in some places in North West Wales. These were taken in Deiniolen and Llanberis. (150m+)

Wow, this winter has really kicked us in the teeth. Let's hope for the hottest summer on record and some super thunderstorms.

All I can c is more cold rain with the odd sleet/ snow shower unless u live high up or North Wales so no difference to yesterday
Think I'll agree with you there. Hope we're wrong, but temperatures this evening looks too mild, we might get the odd sleety mix tomorrow morning as the rain moves away and temperatures drop. Currently 7C at Bute Park. And andymusic - I'd never trust those charts, they're never right. I hope I get proven wrong though!

Hail and a thunderstorm woke me up at 3am here in Cardiff. Heavy showers here at the moment with hail, sleet and I'm sure I've seen some wet snowflakes as well. These showers causing some localised flooding in places. Even colder conditions currently pushing into North Wales at the moment. Temperatures falling at Mynydd Llandygai at the moment and I'm sure this webcam is showing snowflakes! (I'm originally from about 2 miles from there) http://www.mynyddphil.co.uk/index/bigpics.html

My mum was saying it was really bad up Deiniolen way this morning, she was surprised to see schools open. And I agree, when we had the flooding back late December they were awful with weather warnings.

I see that the Met Office has issued a yellow rain warning for the South East of England, warning that rain could lead to surface water flooding.
Given that North Wales experienced several hours of heavy (sometimes very heavy) rain yesterday which resulted in many roads being flooded, the obvious question is, where was the warning? I don't mean to be overly critical of the Met Office but where is the consistency here?
I couldn't agree more with you Carl. I was home in North West Wales on Boxing Day when we had torrential rain and flooding (which also closed the A55 and saw many villages flooded) and Met Office didn't even consider changing the warning from Be Aware to Be Prepared until lunchtime.

Just outside Blaenau Ffestiniog, we moved from Sudbury in Suffolk in early November. I am hoping the weather since is not typical even the locals have been complaining about the wind and rain since then. Walking over the hills has been a bit soggy but we love the area and are glad to have made the move.
Ahh, Blaenau Ffestiniog! Love going for a drive that way and then over the mountains towards Dolwyddelan. Beautiful part of the world. I hope you settle well and enjoy the weather up there. And of course, keep us updated - weather can be very severe around those mountains. Deiniolen, nr Llanberis has quite similar weather to Blaenau. Ohh I feel some 'hiraeth' now. On the other hand, a nice day in Cardiff quite chilly though with light winds.

Where in North West Wales are you EastAnglian? I'm from Deiniolen, my family still lives there, but I'm in Cardiff now!

Yes! We had it in Deiniolen - it was quite active for a while - a nice surprise! Here's a flash I caught towards Snowdon it was heading SE.

Reports of Thunder and hail towards Anglesey - nothing of yet her on the mainland apart from very gusty winds and some rain. Looking black towards the North and the West. C'mon 2014, we need to get rid of 2013 with a bang!
