Lovely winter sunshine with a couple of cm of new snow from overnight
up in north Leeds.
Out and about this morning to find snow showers from blue sky. Clould
seemed to follow some time after before clearing to blue sky and snow
yet again. I guess this is to do with winds at clould or under clould
level. Almost still at ground level. Perfect winter conditions.

Same here in North Yorkshire and some very large 5-10mm single snow
crystals were in amongst the flakes this morning. Then when it turned
sunny you could see them nicely with a magnifying glass. I would have
photographed a few, but my camera gave up in the old (or rather its
batteries did).
