Default The saddest sight in the world

June 1944. Makes me just able to remember an event from the
1947 winter.

A survey done nearly fifty years ago - for Weather? - found that the
number of applications to join the Met Office was higher amongst people
who'd experienced notably severe winters during their early childhood.


Winter '47 was too early for me. However winter '62/63 remains fresh in
my mind even now. It put me off cold and the white stuff for life !

Just a gentle reminder that not everybody with an interest in the
weather is in love with snow.
