Wednesday 21/01/15 Report

Dry after midnight but remaining cloudy.  Warming slightly to thaw the snow on cars by first light.  Cloud thickening once again to bring further flurries of snow during the morning, these merged together for a spell to bring more prolonged snowfall with some large flakes.  However, the snow didn't stick to the ground and the showers gradually eased and turned back to rain.
