Great, if you like exciting weather, conditions in the last hour with a squall line bringing torrential rain (around 90mm per hour) and winds gusting up to 50+mph which died out all of a sudden to flat calm and dry!

The temperature has dropped from 9.2c to 6.3c.

[Stratos Ferric]

Really noticeable drop in temperatures at the cold front night, fairly typically 3C in a very short passage of time, particularly across the south, and the evidence from around Bristol suggests intense downdraughts given that a short spell of snow was reported from quite a few locales in the area.

[Thundery wintry showers]

Currently 5C and heavy showers near Exeter. It was very gusty about a couple of hours ago with horizontal rain. The weather should be pretty exciting over the next few days, if probably not productive on the snow front.

[Sno' problem]

Abolutely torrential shower here, wind gusting heavily (sorry no readings) and looks like more to come.

Edit: Hail now, small pellets, but very loud as they bash into the window!
