Currently it's pouring with rain with lightening and incredibly strong winds. Shame it's too warm for snow, the drifting would be immense!

It will be soon jeth temperature is falling and you have height on your side... My current guess would be after around 1pm it could start to get interesting.

shall set alarm for 6am i think

[rowieboyz]

Gusty winds and sideways hail! awesome

Hoping the parts Exmoor get some accumulations tonight. Have got the day off tomorrow so might take the skis up and try and find a nice hill! (I might be being a little optimistic here...)

[Mumbles]

Currently very strong wind here..our fences don't sound too good!

[Frosty_wsm]

Very heavy rain/hail shower here, near enough horizontal rain with the very strong wind gusts!

Seeing as you're getting up at lunatic o'clock, I presume I can wake up to a nice snowman you've built on my front lawn for me?

[swsnowlover]

Blowing a hoolie and heavy rain interspersed with hail here.

[Charlton Adam snow]

Very gusty winds, horizontal hail - temp dropped from 6.7c to 4.2c in about 2mins! Got a strange feeling that something interesting is brewing for later -especially as the cold air spreads in. I'm 3 miles east of Someton/ 10 mls north East of Yeovil.

[Costa Del Fal]

First proper shower just passing through now with more gusty winds. Thunder, Lightning, Gales, torrential rain, hail, sleet and snow all possible in the same night! This is proper interesting weather!

[Karl83]

WOW! What incredible rain and wind. Not seen anything like it for some time. Car alarms going off because of it.

[Nights King]

Hail and sleet here now...

[Stoxs]

Wind has gone mental in the last 5 mins, can hear stuff flying around outside!

[chris55]

Nothing interesting to report for now, bit of wind and a little rain.

Wind is at times incredibly strong! Brief rain bands too, currently 8 degrees here in Exeter

[Costa Del Fal]

Well done on our legendary Ian Fergusson who im sure earlier said expect sudden changes around Midnight.

[slinky1989]

Well it's absolutely hammering it down outside under this squall line! Really windy!

[Mark Neal.]

Horrendous conditions here.. Heavy Rain, Strong winds, Hail. Flash Flooding and now Thunder. Worst I've seen for many years...

[Dave Kightley]

[katemart]

Sudden squall just passed over Southampton. Think we just caught the lower edge of that one. Heavy rain/hail and blustery winds. Glad I'm safe indoors.

[caz100]

stormy that's all i can say, it woke me up most of the night......good old storm

[Dave Kightley]

Heavy snow shower. Beautiful in the wind gave a temp dusting before thawing on the roads.
