Not ten minutes ago it was a sunny day a couple of miles south. Now, sleet covers the roads in what appeared to be a very localised flurry of sleet – only a mile or two east it was definitely rain and the roads were not hazardous at all. Where cars came along here with the wheels running slightly off the course of previous ones, the spray coming from them was quite impressive and it was a good idea to give them as wide a berth as possible!
