Today started off mild, then it became very windy with heavy rain showers. Showers turned to sleet and hail and then finally snow by late afternoon. About 5 0 clock there was a flash of lightning follwed by thunder and very heavy hail which covered the roads and then turned to heavy snow. Frequent heavy but short snow showers from then on till about 10 o clock when an even heavier hailstorm covered everything and then turned to snow which started to settle. Currently have a couple of cm's lying and its still snowing.
