Default English Snow

You've probably got to look pretty hard for lying English snow that
that is accessible by road, but here's some at the Cat & Fiddle pub
at 515m asl.

The road was apparently closed to lorries earlier today.

Nothing on Winter Hill above Bolton (and I took a good hard look),
which is 456m so not quite high enough on this occaison.

I think today was one of those days that was meteorological
unusual given the track of the low and the central pressure
reading rather than any really unusual weather conditions.
Sure, it was wet, windy, cold, raw and very unpleasant but
nothing that the general public would think of as being
anything out of the ordinary for this time of year.
