RMK: Continuous slight sleet all morning. The temp has
been fluctuating a couple of tenths either side of +2 but,
so far, it isn't showing any signs of a downward trend.
Snow is starting to settle at the Cat & Fiddle (515m) and
the road is becoming snow-covered. The A6024 is closed by
drifting snow at Holm Moss (summit 524m). The A57 Snake Pass
(summit 512m) is open but very icy. As expected, the 'high
impact' weather is occurring inland, outside of the severe
weather warning area which is confined to areas nearer the
west coast.

This made me chuckle :-)

It should really make you sigh with despair :-( From several days ago it was
painfully obvious that if any 'high impact' weather did develop out of this
situatiuon in this part of the country it would be the higher parts inland that
would be worst affected, not the low-lying coastal areas, hence my comment that
you have quoted.

Yes pathetic forecasting. Shows a lack of experience imho.

No snow here just lots of steady rain (17 mm), then again I wasn't
expecting any despite dozens of Met Office warning over the last 2 or 3
days.

The warnings were still coming even though the rain had cleared away
this afternoon. I gather there was a bit of sleet and wet snow up on the
Blackdown Hills.

It was 7C (DP 5C to 6C) during the rain and the temperature only started
to drop sharply once the rain had cleared away.
