Martin, I think what Evershot got was rain, about the same time as you.
The AWS registered 1.0mm, last tip at 03:08z. Certainly there's what
looks like snow on the ground, even on the road, but I suppose it's
frozen rain. Temp now -2.5C at 07:37z. Sky clear.

Then again, it might be that there was some snow falling on frozen wet
ground after the rain. That would not show up in the AWS if the snow
hadn't melted since. Temp now at 07:57z -3.0C. I'll report again at
09:00 as usual, and see what is in the std gauge.
