Default Not just rain but cold outstanding too.

The 14.00hrs BST value here in Coulsdon is 5.4C in moderate rain and
the mercury is falling still. Could be interesting on the summit of
SE England's highest point Leith Hill at 294 metres. Probably down to
4C. Not bad for late May- any colder and sleet might not be out of
the question for the summit.
I notice very heavy snow falling in part of the Alps and an area I
monitor at 1900 metres in the Valais has had 30cm to 40cm overnight
and it is still falling heavily.


I had a 'snow alert' for Sauze-d'Oulx a day or two ago.... thought I was
imagining things!
