Default Big snow little snow, little snow big snow

"An old Eskimo saying if the snow flakes are big, you will only get a
small fall, whereas if the snowflakes are small your in for a big fall"

Blowing around like power outside, blowing along the street, off the
rooves and it's like a winter wonderland.

Currently -0.8°C

As my old Grandmother told me in 1947, there is an an old welsh saying.

"Eira man, eira mawr."

Translated as "Fine snow, Large snows"

'47 started with several days of fine, powdery snow - starting on the first
