[wr] Swanston snow 3rd April
 

This 'winter' seems to have gone on and on up here. Looking at my
records the cold sequence began in mid-January and any any brief milder
spells have been unable to establish themselves. Yesterday's snow became
persistent and heavier after dark with temperatures steady at 0.4C. When
I eventually turned in around 11pm it was still snowing healthily and
looked to be in the order of 6 cm depth. In the early hours the
temperature rose to 1.5C with just light snow. By 0900 a full cover
remained although the depth had declined to 3 cm. Weather in sulking
mode now, best Scottish monochrome.
