Default November Snow


Earlier posts by Jim and Nick mentioned that it was long time ago that snow
was recorded in November. I attended the `mulled wine' day at Gilbert
White's Museum, Selborne, on Sunday 21st November 1993 and snow lay on the
higher parts of the beech hanger above the village, the snow line being
about 150 metres.

Ties in with my earlier post. -
"I was due to fly from Heathrow to
Australia in November 1993 and hit a hard freeze. There was a heavy
snowfall
in London followed by at least a day of freezing fog which naturally
messed
all the transport up that day! Looking at those charts it must have been
around Nov 21st when there was an Easterly and a Scandi High of 1050mb."
