Default [WR] Sleet!! S.Essex 2.1C

Very surprised to see sleet lashing down and settling on ground and car
roofs. Temperature dropped rapidly to 2.1C in last half hour. Is this a
localised cold pool before the main thrust of cold air later tomrrow? You
got any of this Victor?

Dave. 2.1C 23.30hrs

I haven't seen any sleet but the precipitation was certainly lashing against
the windows!

I was still in the pub but sleet reported by my sister here in Knutsford,
Cheshire. Raining again now - heavy hail shower earlier that nearly burst my
eardrums whilst sitting in the conservatory.

Covering of snow reported from my friend in Buxton (hardly surprising given
its altitude).

Cheers
Richard
