Saturday 21/02/15 Report

A cold front passing through during the early morning brought much colder air with a stiff breeze and showers of sleet, hail and a little snow, though not enough to cover the ground. The weather improved a little from late morning onwards, but skies remained largely cloudy with just fleeting glimpses of sunshine to bring any cheer.  Feeling raw in a cold west to north westerly wind.
