And wet too..!
Temp is 2.5C

Indeed.
Light rain here too.
It's an example of how bad the models and even forecaster input and interpretation has been of them that yesterday,the forecast was for sleet and snow in places whereas today they only mention rain.

Of course we only got a little bit of continental air but none of the artic feed from our Easterly.
As I've always said,that would take about 4 or 5 days to travel from moscow.
Without it the air cold as it is from the near continent is simply too weak to withstand mixing with it's atlantic cousin.

3.8c

CrowdedHouse

Grey and a sweltering 6.1C near Roscrea.

There were a few sunny spells earlier,it felt pleasantly warm in them.

Saw that! I thought that blob of ppn on the radar was anaprop but obviously not!

Must be relatively shallow cold layer/air at ground level.
