Is the ground acting as under floor heating?
When I was in Prague in November, it was under never over about 1 degree,
and mostly was under freezing for the whole weekend..
It also snowed all weekend, not hard but mostly consistant light snow with
some moderate falls.. and to my surprise, even after 2 days of snow,
virtually none of it had settled - I couldn't believe it.. this was around
the time that some parts of the UK got a dusting. In fact, on the train to
Stansted from London there was snow lying. I very much doubt that more snow
fell here overnight than did in Prague the whole weekend, but like I said..
no accumulation..

I'm still puzzled as to why the snow is reluctant to settle and melting so
quickly. Overnight the temp was -0.7C and at 0.6C this morning the snow is
melting fast. I can remember falls in March where it was sunny and 2-3C
and
the snow stayed, especially, in the shade, for a couple of days. Is it
that
the ground is much warmer deeper down as we have had virtually no frosts?
