Just had a heavy shower with blustery winds and a bit of sleet chucked in 4.7°c huge fall in temp from that shower

[magicpatch]

Windy, but sunny with the odd cloud. It's around 8c.

Looking at the radar here the showers are a good 2 hours or so away, although if that wind picks up a bit it might arrive sooner.

[Terminal Moraine]

A short spell of heavy rain and squally winds about half an hour after midnight last night gave a max' gust of 59 mph and 3.4mm of rain.

It has been a day of contrast today:

The first half of the day was mild and sunny with scattered clouds. After noon, the cloud quickly built up from the west and at around 2 it started raining and the wind picked up. Shortly after we had sleety rain/light snow which turned to very heavy hail 30 minutes later.

.....and now..... back to sunny spells :wub:
