Hi Paul.

Similar here just up the road. Had some hail around 9ish last night. Looked outside when it started and looked quite viscious.

Had another look at 21.20, and all cars and grass were covered, and parts of the roads/paths. Couldnt work out with what, but looked more like hail (due to how it was melting).

However, also at 21.20 until about 22.00, we had snow. Mainly light, blowing in the winds, but the odd light moderate fall.

Edit - Was all melted this morning though, bar a little bit on the grass at the back and a little on the shed roofs (out the back as well - strange).
