Near the office on the outskirts of York a couple have bloomed. At home there's no chance of the stunted flowers showing there faces until April, which is the latest I've known.
Just wondered how the Daffs were doing around the UK, as I know some of you (Will) note the date of the first one. Graham, don't think you need to reply on this one.

February 16 in South Devon, a week later than last year.


To keep on topic, more snow for much of the night, but little accumulation. The radar suggests heavier falls than actual amounts. Snowing here in York, but not settling.

A few flakes intermittently throughout the last 48 hours. As a rule
we have little or no snow here, perhaps evident on one or two days per
winter (unlike Will at Haytor), this year we have been getting the
sort of snow that usually occurs on the lower slopes of Dartmoor.
