Default Hail then snow!

Temperature at 20.10 was 7.9c at 20.30 it was 2.2c!

Amazing drop in temperature!

Very heavy hail has now turned to snow with the very strong southerly
winds swinging round to west, north west and easing.

An hour ago we got the same in Kerry, SO148896. Quiet now though, but
there are still some BFO echos on the Met Office RADAR on my patch.

Snowing heavily now with a covering already, quite amazing!

Wind gusting to 20 mph

Current temp 1.4c

Can't believe that less than an hour ago the temp was 7.9c with winds
gusting to nearly 50 mph.
