Showers continued until around 2100 yesterday, gradually becoming less
frequent and heavy.
Overnight min of -3.2 then 2 bands of snow came through. Although not
as heavy as showers yesterday, some blizzard-like conditions around
0730-0800, with drifting even here in the valley bottom. Temp was
below -2 during the snowfall.
Depth levelled out around 18cm on the grass this morning, though with
temp now reaching 3c there is a fair thaw, but should still be plenty
around tomorrow. Hopefully I should be able to retrieve my car from
the bottom of the hill later!
Was surprised at how much snow we got here yesterday. We were right in
the firing line and it was like persistent snow rather than showers.
I note that Bridlington reported 6mm yesterday, 10 miles due E from
here, but significantly less in the way of showers right on the coast.
Most Northerlies seem to produce snow/thaw periods here, so the total
doesn't increase as much as it could, but yesterdays max was 1.1c in
the early hours and only 0.3 during daylight, so the depth just kept
building.
