I also see Steve Loft's report from Glenlivet of 28cm of snow this
morning
which is a greater depth than I have ever recorded here (since 1976)

It's the most snow I can remember experiencing for a very long time. I
seem to remember one event back in the 80's when I lived in Cheadle in
Staffordshire when I think there was more than this, and certainly some
huge drifts - my car on the drive was completely buried. I think it may
have been 1984 or 1985, does anyone know?

I think the most I have ever seen was beside Loch Glascarnoch one winter in
the early 1970s when I drove through a snow cutting twice or three times the
height of my car (OK, it was just a Mini but still ... )

I also saw film taken on Cairngorm in 1963 of people on skis jumping over
the top of buses in the snow cutting on the road up to the car park. (I
wonder what happened to that film? I bet the Scottish Film Archive would
like to have it!)
