Though there have been many notable cases at this time of year and
later with heavy accumulations after dark. One that springs to mind was
on or about 20th April in, I think, the late 1970's when there was an
accumulation of 2-3 inches even in Central London

Norman, it could well have been 1981 when many places had prolonged snow,
enough to close a few airports for a time.
