... (30/1025Z): PPN continuous - large part of the time 'proper' snow
(i.e., getting caught up in spider's webs and not melting), but no
impact on surface or visibility. OAT = +1.4°C//DP = +0.3°C. The drop in
the latter value indicating the gentle advection of drier
(lower-dewpoint) air from the southeast.

PPN now very light - few wet/melting flakes: raw.


.... (30/1210Z): any 'wintry' PPN ceased by 11Z, and since then cloud
base lifting - St underneath fragmenting - very 'thin', sporadic
drizzle: OAT up to 2.3°C, DP = 1.2°C.
