[Snow And Wintry Precipitation]

Oh well just as i thought it was going to start to settle on the grass it decides to stop.Here is a pic of the falling snow at 18:33

Hi AC,

Just seen your posts after mine.Yes it looks like i just missed the snow,but next to Abingdon i must live in the least snowiest part of the UK,lol.

Best regards,Phil.

Some of these flakes that are faliing are bigger than a 50 pence piece

I have seen rain/sleet this afternoon but no snow yet .

[Sunday 9th April 2006]

A period of steady rain/sleet just stopped,lasted for 2 hrs approx.

[April CET]

My guess is for an April CET of 9.6 C

I ve got a feeling that a lot of High pressure will be around UK this year continuing the pattern of last 18 months or so.

I `m looking at a predominantly south/south west feed around a Biscay / European high pressure belt becoming more prominent later in the month as the Atlantic lows weaken and stay further west and north.

We will still get the occasional colder day with rain but generally a settled and rather warm April i think.
