[WR] Near-blizzard, blowing snow - Canterbury
Jonathan Stott wrote:
Strong winds and very heavy snow (big flakes) reducing visibility down to around 50-100m. Snow blowing along the railway tracks. About 2cm of accumulation in five minutes. Still no sign of the showers dieing out - they are still piling in off the sea. Last shower lasted 30 minutes, caused the temperature to drop to 0.2°C at 1345Z. Left a fresh deposit of 2cm of snow including 1cm on many vertical surfaces (fences, walls, etc.). Visibility was reduced to abou 20-30m at one point. Wind is now whipping it up. Although the snow has been melting between showers, we still have the same amount (if not more) than we had at 0900Z with about 6cm on grass. -- Jonathan Stott Canterbury Weather: http://www.canterburyweather.co.uk/ |

Kids sledging all day and near blizzard conditions coming in of the sea. Very strong wind and waves crashing over the sea walls. A real winters day Mark Chamberlain Herne Bay, Kent |
