Graham Penzance Weather www.easterling.freeserve.co.uk/weather.html Holiday Cottage www.easterling.freeserve.co.uk I think a small low's developed. The N wind was gusting to 50mph 15 minutes ago, now it's virtually calm. The wind actually went SE then E at Newquay, with the temperature 0 degrees at 15:00. Here heavy sleet & 2 degrees, so I'm sure there must be snow at Stithians - MCC? Graham |

High cloud seems to be building too. Wind has dropped out and has now got a lot of WSW in it. -1.2 deg C and 992.7 hPa at 1635. Take care. This is a very volatile situation weatherwise. Cheers, Will. -- |

Just below 0 here now, complete snow cover outside, The heaviest snow since I moved back in '91. The fall in temperature was rapid as http://www.met-office.gov.uk/weather.../stmawgan.html also shows. I expect the temperature to rise again once the wind returns. Graham |

No doubt you can look forward to the "the soft southerners" posts to
follow - as we did a couple of years back when 6" of snow blocked the outside lane of the M11 near Stansted for several hours!
