Surprise Snow this morning first of the winter
temp 0.6c wind zero depth unknown poss inch.

[Terminal Moraine]

About 2cm of lying snow here and a few flakes still drifting down. The secondary low coming into the south west last night must have been a bit further north than forecast to have produced this.
For a month which hasn't yet given any really cold weather it's been a remarkably good one so far for snowfalls even though they've all been light.

[Weather Ship]

Has been a very squally night here with quite a few showers of rain mostly and still persisting, The wee low was off Pembrokeshire at 00 and the occlusion was through here. Currently temp of 8.2C ( feels colder) with WNW wind 30mph gusting 40. The showers will probably lessen during the day.

Disappointing, as I was expecting my first air frost.
