Default Snow remains in South Wales

Up around the heads of the valleys region again yesterday and was
slightly surprised to see how much snow was still remaining. Only on the
mountains above about 1400' but large swathes and cornices. Don't think
it is 'waiting for more' any more!

Cheers

Just what mountains should be like in late winter. Thanks James.

Is there still snow on Dartmoor?

Looking at the animated Satellite images from West Cheshire College,
there appears to be a white patch over Dartmoor that isn't moving?
Doesn't look like there is any cloud over Dartmoor from where I am in
Teignmouth.

Not that much Bonos. One or two patches left very high up as far as I know.
Hay Tor, Ripon Tor and Hameldown glaciers have melted.

The tussock grass looks white in the sun as it is the old stalks which have
dried. It may be that showing on the imagery, seems about the right area?

I drove along the north coast yesterday to Anglesey and there was a lot of
lying snow on the mountains. There were vary large patches well below the
1000ft level on north facing slopes.
