It did on 14 February 1979 too!: Temperatures left the Denmark coast
at -12 C in a 40Kt easterly.
They arrived on the East coast at -5 C and dumped significant snow. Powder
snow everywhere and deep drifts. I was working at Linton-on -Ouse at the
time on an evening shift by 10pm that day there was 3 foot drifts. This
was on low ground too!! The 1000-500mb thickness was
510DM. This day will always stand out in my memory as the worst snow day
I've experienced -


....or the best in the view of many members here Rob!! Where you working
these days? Surely not commuting the M62 every day?
