Winter 2009/2010

So Winter 2009 has arrived with a bang!
Cold temperatures and large quantities of snow have been the pre-christmas flavour here (and throughout the UK and Europe as we all know!).
The autumn was generally mild and the build-up wasn't great, but this has been rectified by large quantities falling in the week beginning 14th December, i.e. a week before the season commenced.
In the run up to Christmas we've had more snow with fluctuating temperatures, and quite high winds at times. This seems to be the picture for next week, with at least a couple of weather fronts coming through. This may mean difficult skiing conditions at times, but will mean yet more snow!!
Happy Christmas to everyone and a great New Year!
