With the exception of 17th January there was no snow cover in Sheffield throughout the winter of 2015-16. Even this snow was almost all gone by late morning. I cannot remember a winter with quite as few snow days. There was also a brief snow cover back in November and I am sure spring with provide some interesting moments. One thing that was different this winter compared to other mild winters is the lack of snow up on the Peaks where I would usually head off to get my snow fix.
