Default Light snow

Good evening everyone,

light snow has been falling since the early morning hours across the basin
of Athens. No accumulations ofcourse, since the conditions are highly
anticyclonic and it's only because of the morphology that there is
precipitation. Snow was falling in very brightly sun-lit skies late in the
morning. Light accumulations in the northern suburbs and, up to a few feet
on the surrounding mountains.

Yannis, SE Athens
+2.6C, RH 69%, SLP 1028.3 hPa

Oh, now, please, Yannis, you know how strongly I feel about this.:-(

Those are pretty impressive snowflakes nonetheless. Just what exactly
is the diameter of that particular snowflake?

Also, is that an indoor sofa that it's on?

Cheers,
D.

You've told more often, Yannis. But it still keeps me wondering....
