Since Sunday evening there has been well over an inch of rain in an approx 10 mile wide wedge from the Bristol Channel across Somerset into SW Wiltshire/Dorset due to a persistent shower streamer. The streamer is still going but has lightened in intensity since mid morning and also edged slightly further North so that the latest shower is over my postcode.

A cold, breezy and hazily sunny morning with the temperature at 6.7c after 2.0c minimum, humidity is 84%.
11 May = the 1st completely dry day for 25 days!!

Temperature is rising quickly here now the sky has clouded over. 6/8 oktas up from 2/8 oktas earlier.
4.7C currently, so it's likely we'll record the daily maxima before midnight. The max today has been 5.7C.

Will be plugging in my weather station in an hour or two to record tonight's wind. Will then be online until Sunday morning. Hopefully I'll record some snow. :D

1c and clear... under a clear interval for about an hour before the cloud rolls in from the west later.
Hoping for a future in meteorology!

Looking likely your location could see some front edge or back edge snow. Front edge snow from the cold air that's currently in place, although it will be marginal with rising uppers.
Some back edge snow from colder air undercutting from the NW later on. Again, marginal though, especially as we're relying on the speed of the precipitation.

Uppers don't seem to fall below -4c... freezing rain possible (both the actual freezing rain, and some bloody cold rain!) 1.5c and rising here.
