Six Months Of Snow

[kernowman]

Am I correct in that this season there has been snow lying somewhere in the UK during the following months: October, November, December, January, February, March.  If so when was the last time this happened?

I think every year! Snow would lie somewhere on the higher ground from the peaks northwards every month from October to May. Then of course there are the semi-permanent snow patches that survive in Scotland all year round. If you're talking about snow falling, that presumably has happened in every month of the year, again in Scotland, maybe July being the only possible exception, but I'm sure others will know better......

Snow has indeed fallen at the highest elevations in Scotland in every month of the year although it's not a common occurrence in July and August.
