Another impressive event here this evening, with snow since 3pm which has gradually turned heavier and left a covering of 2-3cm. This morning just passed as a 7th consecutive MetOffice snow day with around 50-60% coverage so it seems very likely tomorrow will be a 8th.

Overall it was an overcast but dry start to the day before the snow arrived late in the afternoon. It was very cold again with a max of 1.3C, but the cloudcover overnight meant the min temp was just -0.2C.

Currently -0.2C and 95% humidity with light snow still falling.

[sunny scunny]

Cloudy and dry until mid-afternoon then the snow arrived and lasted for quite a few hours.In total there was around 3 inches.

Currently dry, but cloudy with the temp below freezing.

[Terminal Moraine]

The freezing rain/sleet/ice pellets did eventually turn into a short spell of light snow this evening before it all cleared away to the south.

Currently overcast and misty with a temp' of -2.2c, a thin layer of fresh snow on top of the old and everything dripping with icicles.
