A rare event – if it snows in England, it’s unusual and generally only a dusting; but my Dad just sent pictures of the snow where he lives, and it’s impressive! Must be at least 3″, and no doubt no-one is travelling anywhere right now … Maybe more impressive, the Sun is trying to shine – that doesn’t happen often in an English winter either!
As expected, yesterdays clearing was reversed by Snow all day and night – high winds too! So this morning, the paths and driveway are covered by perhaps 8″ of Snow (though the cars only had an inch or two due to the winds); and so just like yesterday we’re dug out again – we’ll see how long it lasts …
Reminding us that Winter continues through the new year, a storm rolled in late last night, snowing all day today, and supposedly continuing through tomorrow too! Since we didn’t want to stay shut in for two days, we walked down to the Post Office this morning; then we cleared the 3″ or so from the paths, driveway and cars – but of course it’ll all come back again (right now, 7 hours later, there’s another 1″ or so) …
