Snow has almost stopped for a while now. I didn't realise how wonderfully clear
the polar air was till now. Lovely webcam image at 1012. Can see the sea as if it were just a mile away with sunny skies on the other side of Lyme Bay. Also snow lying evident in Torquay, Newton Abbot, Teignmouth right down to sea level. Quite something for November. Snow depth here 5 cms and powdery. Small drifts in places. The country bus took 5 minutes to slither past our house on the ice, but the plough has done an excellent job keeping the main road clear. Thanks Devon CC! Temp -1.4 deg C. A beautiful winter's day.

It's till autumn for another week! 1040 I know I have to keep telling myself that ! Heavy line of snow on radar just to west of me. The NW of Dartmoor must be catching a packet now. Temp has fallen to -1.7 deg C now here. Pressure still falling but main feed now seems to be west of me, so perhaps not too much more for Haytor. But low confidence :-) Will. -- |

Quite something for November. Will have to call my relatives in Abbotskerswell to see how they're faring. They're not the biggest snow fans! Are you archiving the images, Will? Would be interesting to see a timelapse of today what with all the intermittent heavy snow and clearances. Richard |

Richard Good idea Richard, I do save 30 hours worth online every hour, but I haven't set up any links to them yet. My ISP only gives me 20Mbytes web space for everything at the price so I'm still considering that. http://www.lyneside.demon.co.uk/Hayt...c/kabcam03.jpg presently shows the 0922 image. Change 03 to 02 to get more recent etc. The numbering will change every hour of course. Eg. http://www.lyneside.demon.co.uk/Hayt...c/kabcam30.jpg shows what it was like two days ago! That one will disappear next hour. Hope that's clear. From what I can tell with binoculars Abbotskerswell has snow, but I would have thought the roads would be OK lower down. Unlike our lane which few cars can get up. Will go out later and put down some grit. Temp still -1.3 at 1145 but sun has been out! Snow lovely and fluffy in the garden. Cheers, Will. -- |

Bugger all here in Raynes Park, but we're only at 15m so I would imagine anything we get would be sleety. If you can pile over the files from today I could find a way to make them into an mpeg.
