  1. Has been gorgeous on the Wolds this week after the heavy snow on Monday and none has gone from the trees or hedges. However, the breeze has just picked up in the last half hour and really started to blow things around. Rather than the heavy showers of earler, it's been persistent snow for about an hour now, but nowhere near as heavy as it was. No complaints from here though.

    And Adam, if you're really that concerned - move! I was brought up in Cornwall and you have no idea how frustrating that was. Been in Yorkshire over 20 years and have chosen my locations very carefully. Lived in Penistone for 8 years and been here nearly 10 and they are both prime spots for snow, look at the reports.

  2. Just been out to clear the snow off the car and the drive and there's easily 11 cm on the grass, which was quite surprising. But it's fluffy stuff so hasn't settled down at all. With there being no frost before there's only about 6 cm on the paths and wet underneath so easy to clear before it freezes.

    Even though the front has cleared through, there's been persistent heavy snizzle not showing on the radar which has covered the car again. Currently -0.6 reached a max of -0.1. Looking to the North and east now for the snow to come back, it's not far away.

  3. Just checked the min last night and it was 0.6c, how amazing, nearly an air frost!!!! At 2300 when it was around 4c I was thinking how sad it really was. My wife said she thought it was sleet when she went out in the car at 0930, but not really so sure about that.

    Anyway, with nothing more exciting to talk about concerning anything wintry, Merry Christmas to all you weather nuts and to all those praying the rain stays away, I hope you get what you wish for.

  4. I know some are complaining, but we've had 7 days with sleet or snow falling (2 of those were sleet) and 3 with snow lying this month. Sounds a bit better than reality, as there was only one decent snow fall and I'm not counting lying snow today when there was snow on top our hill but we just had a little frozen slush, but there was a dusting across the Wolds tops.

    Not a bad start in my book. Forgot to mention October as well, or have I gone too far?
