Default 33mm overnight and snow down to 1200 feet

Does not feel like 33mm as the burn is not raging due to the snow
above in the catchment area. Little wind here at the moment. Nice to
see the snow all around the valley sides, the type of day that one of
the farmers will proudly race down the hill to parade his snow covered
4x4 in the village!

They do that round your way as well eh? There was a well covered
Defender outside the Co-op in town this morning. Must admit I have
driven carefully with a few inches of snow on when going to work down
in Sunderland or Newcastle...

I pose in winter as well!
I try to get to work in Exeter (20 mile drive) with snow on the car (though
it usually melts by then in the warm lowland Devon climate).
I can pose 900 feet just down the hill in Bovey Tracey though :-)

Nearly 50 miles to Newcastle, 60 to Sunderland. As you say the warm
lowland air normally puts paid to most of it before I get there.
Nearly made it to Sunderland once with a couple of inches remaining
but miss judged how loose it had all come on a round about...

Depositing that amount of ice/snow on the road is why driving with
that amount of snow on board is technically illegal.
