Default Largest flakes I can remember seeing.

A well respected observer in West Wickham, Kent , during the snowy March of
1916 said that the snowflakes on the 3rd and the 6th were 4 inches
(10cm)across. I believe the world record is about A4 sized or about 30cm by
20cm. A virtual snow cover with one flake.

Another one for the books in Kent.

Tie me gander/goose down boys, tie me gander goose-down.
