Currently clear and cold with a temperature of just 2.4C. The record low min here since 1983 is 0.3C, so if it remains clear then theres a good chance it could fall tonight.

Currently 3C after a low of -1C at the local frost hollow. A more likely 0.3C at Glasgow Bishopton, although that is a notorious non-frost hollow.

Nice and sunny again though

Looking like a carbon copy of yesterday so far.

Bright start, lots of blue skies, cool and a stronger breeze than yesterday morning. Currently 7.1c after a low of 4.1c

Cloud and outbreaks of light rain overnight kept away an air frost. Though the cloud cleared sufficiently through the early hours and allowed the temperature to dip low enough for a touch of ground frost. Low 2.8c and –0.3c on the grass. Bright with sunny spells up to observation.

Come on warmth come back - used far too much heating lately!

[The PIT]

Frost overnight in Scarborough.

Showers of rain and snow pellets in the heavier bursts.

No idea what the temp is.

[fedmog]

Just had a 5 min snow shower here in Buxton..!!!!!!!

[reef]

It has been the coldest May night in at least 27 years here with a min temp of 0.1C, beating the previous low of 0.3C set in 1997.

It is currently mostly cloudy and very dark to the north after a sunny morning. The temperature is 10.4C with 57% humidity. Dry so far but that wont last long.

[skifreak]

Snow shower, +9.1c, dp +0.3c in Inverness.

[Andy Bown]

The morning was mostly cloudy with a few drops of rain and a chilly Northerly breeze. The sun has broken through in the last few hours with some sunny spells and quite quick convection occuring. 12.4c at present with 49% humidity.

[reef]

Currently sleeting here with snowflakes mixed in. I was hoping this would happen again on my birthday like in 1995 and it has!

Temperature is 7.4C and falling rapidly in the shower.

[Optimus Prime]

An unusually cold night last night, dropped down to 0.5c. As with all late spring days the temperature rebounded quickly and is now 12.4c and cloudy.

[Thundery wintry showers]

I must admit I had been thinking of you when looking at the model outputs for today- it always looked like being the peak day of the cold snap, and the synoptic setup and 850hPa temperatures are reminiscent of the setup for around 11-13 May 1995.

Not much chance of that happening here in Norwich- dewpoints (2-3C) are a little too high here, and so far there have only been light showers scattered about. Currently 9C with sunny intervals. Perhaps some of those big showers to the NW might make their way across during the afternoon.

Not much chance of wintry precipitation up in Cleadon either- showers look like they're forming inland and largely missing the extreme coastal fringe, as sometimes happens there.

Yes, its interesting that the timing is pretty similar to that year too. It was quite a marked temperature change during the shower, highlighting the effects of heavy convective showers during cold spring flows. We went from 10.4C to 4.9C in around 25 minutes.

Its sunny again now, but the temperature hasnt really recovered, standing at just 6.7C.

A pretty impressive day to be honest. The lowest min for at least 27 years and then wintry showers too.
