The wall in the first picture is around 4 feet high....as is the tree which you can see the top of now buried.....

The NAE has a thin line of heavy stuff still over us by 0600 tomorrow.

Ive noticed on the radar a sort of streamer developing that might feed snow into the southern part of the region

[Isolated Frost]

INCREDIBLE snow amounts on high ground inland- superb !

The snow totals in Dec 2010 reached 42cm, most of it in between Nov 24 and Nov 30, with a cold e'ly on the 1st making way for a upper ridge and some incredibly cold temps-

the snow in Consett probably is about 40cm in one DAY (!), absolutely incredible, so envious at some of these snow amounts, shame the lower areas couldn't join in, that is Syracuse, NY type snowstorm totals !!

Hopefully any NE/E reload will be similar to Dec 2010 and provide us lower areas with huge convection and snow totals- especially with a colder continent now than in Nov/Dec 2010

How deep was you snow cover in 2010, given that we had nearly a foot at lower levels.

(what a bizarre swear filter)
