Incredible! That's quite a layer already.

[cmcmck]

And already gone since it warmed up today and turned to heavy rain!

[vriddy]

Wow, so hard to believe it could all be gone in so little time 😂 Weather!

I lived in Shropshire when I was little! (Alveley, near Bridgnorth). I am now in Germany and in our area we haven't had snow yet, thank goodness. It looks nice but it is a pain. But nice photos!

Nice! Our snow is late this year, so at least someone is getting some. :)

[cmcmck]

Variable just about sums it up! :o)

We live in Wellington which isn't so very far from there.

[cmcmck]

It's early for us which is probably why it didn't last.

Burrr, so cold! But your lovely photos are sheer magic!

[octahedrite]

Very picturesque!

Lovely!

Thanks for sharing the first-snow thrill.

Your own icon is beautiful too, as well as apropos; is that supposed to be Sansa Stark?

I really like seeing snow on the bushes and in the trees, it's such a pretty sight.

Such beautiful photos! Snow is magic!

We had a brief burst of winter for a couple of days but only got the lightest dusting of snow. And today it's raining so even that is gone now :-(

So pretty ❄️

Quick shots upon having just got out of bed and opened the blinds to notice all this

It's 'Porsephone' by Dante Gabriel Rossetti and the model was Effie Morris.

We live in a nice spot under the Shropshire hills.

Re: Lovely!

[cmcmck]

Y're welcome! :)

It only lasted three days but it was nice while it did.

[cmcmck]

Especially if you happen to be somewhere nice and warm!

[cmcmck]

We have a lot of local trees and woodland and it makes all the difference.

…Thank you for having remedied that hole in my cultural education. And for sharing your fleeting sneak preview of temperate winter.

[cmcmck]

As a redhead myself I tend to like the pre raphaelite redheads! :o)

[shirebound]

Oooh, that was a lot. We're still waiting for our first flurries.

[cmcmck]

I didn't last all that long in the end as an Atlantic storm then brought the temperatures right up.

You’re easy to envision as a Shropshire Lass In Kirtle Green.

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing!

[cmcmck]

:o)

[cmcmck]

Glad you enjoyed!

[virgosplaining]

Stunning!

[cmcmck]

It made for a few days of cheerful brightness rather than Winter dull! :o)
