Blustery spring fronts with showers: September 5-10

Our son sent us vid of flakes at Romsey but not collecting on the ground. Around 6pm it was -4c at 2000ft above Tulla (don't know if ASL or AGL). I did see snow clouds at that altitude above Wallan, but nothing (snow) reached the ground. Was 5c at 90% humidity so too warm and moist.
