Hello, I'm in Northumberland and it's sunny, but cold and it's just started hail stoning.

What's your weather like?

A bit of everything today except a thunderstorm!

PaperMonster Wed 05-May-21 12:40:42

We got caught out I. The hail on Sunday! The forecast had been for sunshine with light showers. It threw it down and also hailed!

I'm just across the border in northwest Durham. It was snowing here a few minutes ago.

Snow here in north Scotland

Shandy57 Wed 05-May-21 15:28:42

I'm just back from a sunny walk, that turned into a run as it started hailing hard!

Snow in north Scotland and Durham - my son lives in Stanley, he'll be fed up! I suppose it was our coldest April for 60 years, but I thought the worst was over. So glad I haven't put my winter coat into the cleaners yet.

Hailstones in the West Midlands...

I do know the rule about 'ne'er casting a clout until May is out', BUT last week I did pack away all my winter jumpers, trousers and shoes, and put out Spring and summer clothing and sandals.
Fortunately, 'pack away' just means they are all in the wardrobe in the spare bedroom, so not far away.

Sunny but huge hailstones here too. Weird!

Ealdemodor Wed 05-May-21 15:48:21

Callistemon Wed 05-May-21 16:41:02

Two hailstorms today in S Wales, the one an hour ago left a thick layer in the garden like a snowfall.

AGAA4 Wed 05-May-21 16:44:03

Here it was sunny when I played tennis but suddenly it snowed, for about 2 minutes......now we have rain which looks kind of sleety too. Standard May weather .....

harrigran Wed 05-May-21 17:54:42

We have had several hail showers and thunder.
