Came back from shopping here in Medway area of Kent about 2 pm . Parked up outside my house as big raindrops started, looked a bit odd though and the realised it was rain on the windscreen but was actually snow .

It had a downpour as snow settling as rain and then stopped , a bit nippy though even though the car says its 12 degrees outside

Seems as if you have all had some unseasonable weather. It's very wet again tonight, and still cold. Stay warm, folks.

In all the sleet and hail this morning the police caught some idiot driving at over 100 mph. Some people have no sense!

We had the lot yesterday. Rain, hail, thunder, sleet and snow.

Yesterday afternoon/evening I went to work in bright sunshine. Massive thunderstorm as I got out of the car and then the sun came out again while I was there.

The hail started as I was leaving followed by rain and I got soaked crossing the car park.

Early bath and bed last night. :-\
