I am getting fed up with all this ongoing warmth, so think now is the time for a ramp. The long term winter charts for CFS certainly wetting the appetite for snow lovers. Only a few on this forum will have memories of 46/47. Certainly not me but do remember 62/63 as something special. For a bit of fun can anyone name the town in the picture below taken in March 1947 when 1.47m of snow was recorded ? Clue and its not in Scotland !

Took me long enough 😂

I started off by working out North Staffordshire/Cheshire had heavy snow in 1947 and then had to follow the clues working west.

Yep, my dads farm was near Macclesfield and he told me all about the deep snow and drifts in that February. He also knew some cattle farmers from the Vale of Clywd and they were locked in deep snow drifts for weeks on end. I remember as a young lad the severe cold of 62/63, which was probably a once in a life time experience for longevity for the British Isles. Sure other cold spells since have been notable but not of the prolonged  duration of  62/63.

Oh yes.  My mum is now 90 bless her and if cold weather is under discussion she will always bring up 1947 which she feels was more severe than 1962/63 in some ways.
