It looks about 15c hotter than it is

You're not going experience the blizzard in southern England, you need to be in subarctic NI to experience such phenomena.

CFSv2 warmer than Euro for May. Also closer to normal for me as well

We have a few 20c days in the forecast for early May, nothing unusual though.

May typically sees around 10 days above 20c, 7 above 21c/70f.

Paris-Orly typically sees 13 highs above 20°C and 11 above 21°C in May.

No snow here today, but it felt freezing in the wind. Just a couple of 5 minute rain showers.

Heavy wet snow here in early morning. Some did stick on the grass and windshields, but melted away when the sun came out in the afternoon.

it's really warmed up out in south eastern Europe .

We saw some heavy snow for a brief moment as well, which turned into very drizzly rain/snow. Almost nothing stuck to the ground, and it's all melted away now.
