Very interesting! Looking at it closely I notice that the snowfalls of
December didn't register on your index although it was a cold month. Even
in this part of England I had several days of 'snow lying' in
'northerly ' spells and usually I would expect Luton to get more snow in
this weather type. Also, did Luton miss out on the late April snows of
1950?

Just spotted I didn't make it clear it was December 1950 I was referring
to!

Yes, Peter, the April 1950 snowstorm amounted to three hours of
light to moderate snow up here which didn't settle! We got 11cm
out of the April 1978 polar low, though.
