There has also been some thunder.


We had more snow overnight up here in Stithians and then at about 0700 the
thunder and lightning started with hail, sleet and snow.
It knocked my power off twice but only briefly but I decided not to switch
the computer back on until I couldn't hear any more rumbles of thunder or
see flashes of lightning. The storm took 2 hours and more to pass.

There are reports in the local paper of a 'tornado' or 'water spout' in
Falmouth Bay.

It's snowing again now with temperature at freezing point.
