Wow this spell turned out to be almost as severe as the last. It's widely 8 inches deep here with lot of drifting. I imagine alot of the roads are now cut off up here even my front door is close to being snowed in with a drift.5aadfe5c85a5b_snow18_03_18.thumb.jpg.f0f5437caebd6d8c66163353026d7c98.jpg

Just woke up to heavy drifting snow! A few inches cover, although highly variable given the drifting with snow also plastered up the window. Happy times! :D

I wasn't expecting the wind to be as bad as a couple of weeks back. It is wild out there with clouds of snow being blown around.

“We dreamed of snow in the night”.

All is not what it seems when a white cloaked “beast” stirs in the night. Thick blankets of dreams upon dreams falling on breathing upturned hearts; earth-bound but sky-fleeting: dark-dormant and waiting for light to nakedly reveal: banish or welcome again - its wandering nature and ethereal joy. The snow-beast wraps us in its heavy comfort of white glowing, crystaline shaggy hide of thick cold.

The trees inhale, exhale and move in the night. And the snow-drops lay under; under and under, like stalagmites in caves. Rabbit four-paw-leap-tracks buried deep as sleep; in drifts, in drifts - of ice-walls and melt-bowls and fine ridge-whipped cornices. Mini mountains roamed by minibeasts in valleys of hope - and beyond.

We dreamed of snow in the night.

 

.........which just fizzles out before it reaches Preston.

Can you spot the brave sole who is walking directly into a 50=60mph beast

Light dandruff snizzle here drifts on the field maybe half an inch. 

Over Rawtenstall on the ELR today to see what the fuss is all about :unknw:

That happened with the last easterly, I think it maybe a glitch with the radar when its this type of set-up.

I hope so. Would be so cruel for such a tiny area to miss out when only a mile or so down the road has a very good cover. 

Brilliant event here, I think the deepest snow since at least Jan 2015, maybe even Jan 2010.

Fabulous outlook. No real warm up in sight yet and talk of an Arctic plunge for Easter in the extended. Perfect!

Can not even think how to measure here. The wind has taken a lot and left it somewhere else.

Maybe on your bin

Yes, measuring is nigh on impossible given the drifting. Cover varies from a thick dusting to several inches here!

Horribly frustrating radar. Everything moved through here light and went super heavy over north wales. Of course. 

 

Dusting here. Snowing lightly.
