Hi, the best snow I've experienced was from a stalled front in West Cumbria during February 1996. I remember heavy snow falling from 8am on the Monday morning, continuing all day and night. I was snowed in for a week with 18" level snow depth and drifts of 6' plus. It buried my mini I had at the time! The coastal village of St Bees was completely cut off and food deliverys were undertaken by boat from Whitehaven. A truly remarkable period from an area that usually receives little snow.
