Hi everyone! My gran swears blind that just after my late dad was
born in May 1932, there was heavy snow in Britain!!!!!! I have looked
in William Foggitt's book of Yorkshire weather and there is nothing in
there about it - so PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can someone tell me that she
isn't imagining things! Thanks very much


There was no snowfall reported in Coventry during May 1932 - as Philip
says there were 2 days of may snowfall in 1935, but then again I guess
you know when your dad was born!


Hi, thanks for all your replies. My dad was born in Leeds, as I said,
on May 5th 1932 - so it looks as though my gran just might have been
imagining things! Maybe, I'll be able to shut her up now!
