It does. Thanks. As you're counting Easter as four days, I'm less
surprised. In my part of SE England, any snow over the four days of
Easter is a rarity, though possibly still a bit more common than snow at
Christmas. The only time I can recall lying snow over Easter here was on
Good Friday, 1975, following one of the mildest winters on record.

I recall one morning that Easter trying to scrape ice off the path at
around 10am. I was getting nowhere so had to put salt down. My Dad had
died on the Wednesday before Good Friday and it was also very cold at
his funeral a week or so later with snow showers.
