Remarkably little snow for 1979.

Well, it ranked 12th out of 105. Lack of depth,
I suppose ... there were 40 days with snow lying
but it was never deeper than 9cm. In December
1981, by contrast, the deepest snow at 09z was
22cm and in February 1991 18cm.

The only double-figured depth since then was
10cm on the morning of 28th December 2000.
