Tideswell, Derbyshire - Monday 2nd April 2018
----------------------------------------------------------------

0530z 07009kt 0500 SN VV/// +00.3/-00.0 1002
RMK: Moderate sleet started just after 2200z yesterday evening
with the temp on +2.0°. Judging from the temperature trace
and the time the AWS stopped clocking up rainfall I reckon
the sleet probably turned to snow around 0300z. There's
5cm of lying snow on all surfaces, including the road. There's
no drifting. The temp is slowly creeping down.

0900z 07009kt 3000 RA 8St005 +00.4/+00.2 998
RMK: Snow turned to sleet around 0630z and to rain around 0830z.
There's 6cm of lying snow. The max depth was about 8cm but it's
thawing fast now.
09-09z: Tx 4.2 (1415z) Tn +0.2 (0635z) RR 22.4
18-09z: Tg -0.8 00-24z: Sun 0.5

1200z 35003kt 0800 -RA FG 8St002 +01.3/+01.1 996
RMK: Persistent slight to moderate rain. 4cm of very wet
lying snow with a steady thaw in progress.

1600z 35002kt 0400 RA FG 8St001 +02.8/+02.5 992
RMK: It must be a Bank Holiday Monday! There was a dry spell
for a couple of hours in mid-afternoon but the rain is back.
There's been fog on and off since mid-morning. There's still
2-3cm of lying snow with a 90% cover. The roads around the
village have only a little slush on them and are no problem.
All the high-level main roads are now open after many were
closed earlier in the day. Max temp 2.8° so far. A thoroughly
foul day.
