    By the way its going here in west clare, i may as well sweep the slush off the window sills and start selling slush puppies!

    Constant sleet/hail mix here with a stubborn 2.8c temp.

    Yep snow shower passed through here(kilcock) tried to stick at one stage. Looking promising.
    Those showers seem to intensify over the midlands then ease off further east.
