We have similar weather in Germany. My girlfriend went to work this morning, leaving in a snow-chaos, drove only 20 min but where she arrived there wasn't any snow at all. At home the snowing stopped at noon and thawed in less than an hour. 3 hours later it started again, even hailed and now the ground is covered again.
