Default {WR} Haytor 02/02/08 (full snow cover)

Well only a sprinkling 1cm, but full nevertheless and counts as a
snow lying day :-)

Lane is icy and snow covered but treated roads fine.
Min. -2.7C but now above freezing at 0850 and rising quickly in warm
Devon sunshine, so snow won't last long :-(

Great walk outside in these conditions though and still some Cbs
running across northern moor. Dog loved skidding on the extensive ice.
High moor shining white with what looks like a couple of inches or so
on Cosdon Beacon (over 500m asl) ( Okehampton way) and about an inch
or so on Hameldown.

OK about an inch less than I expected at home but the locals will be
happy as it is at least white and pretty. Go away sun! LOL I'm happy.
