Cold spells

 I once read how regular weather patterns can be. On a broad scale for example, here we get cold northerlies from April to May and mild southerlies in September and October. The exact opposite of what we would like to see.

Snow is a bit less predictable. 

Or is it? Since the millennium we have had some snow each year in November and December. 

30th December 2020. A dusting at midnight.

29th November 2021. The aftermath of Storm Arwen was cold. Above shows our snow covered bathroom lit by candle. No heating or hot water for 11 days.

14th December 2022. White on the flatter surfaces.

1st December 2023. Tricky driving as our roads are often last to be gritted.

20th November 2024. This is uncanny. Same date as this year below...

20th November 2025. 2 inches fell driving very difficult until later in the daty.

20th November 2025 being out here when the roads are difficult we have the coast to ourselves...
