I suppose that the area they've marked up just north of Cardiff is around 250m or higher, but if you do that then why not highlight Exmoor?


Bruce.


Warnings are now issued with respect to impacts rather than just the
amount of snow. I imagine in this case its because there are a much
larger number of main and hilly routes in that area of southeast
Wales, including the important A465 'Heads of the Valleys' road, and
also potentially much higher numbers of people likely to be affected.
On Exmoor, on the other hand, there are relatively fewer main routes,
and a low population.
