Default [WR] Pontrhydygroes, snow and strong winds

23:35 Saturday

What looked like light drizzle/sleet a couple of hours ago has now definitely
turned to snow, falling at a moderate rate in a strong E-ENE wind. Still
fine particles, air temperature 0.8C.

I see the weather warnings out for Scotland, but given the forecast and
present conditions I'm not sure why we don't have one too. If, as is
forecast, this continues for most of the night, and the temperature does
drop to well below freezing, we are in for some very interesting
conditions come the morning. The only comment on the Met Office Wales
forecast is "Risk of disruption from lying snow" for tomorrow. Time will
tell.
