Beast Blizzard

This started rather modestly but by 28th February conditions were severe with daytime highs about -3C compounded by high winds from the east and frequent snow showers.
During the showers conditions were hellish at times, but probably little more than 6 inches of snow has fallen so far.

Forecasts suggest more normal cold weather returns by the weekend with temperatures creeping above freezing, but very much on the cold side until perhaps mid-March.
