A proper winter?

The birds are singing, bumblebees are flying & the primroses are flowering suggesting spring is almost upon us, and that perhaps the coldest weather is now behind us. However back in January and early February it was a very different story, with overnight temperatures as low as minus 10 C, and daytime temperatures struggling to better 2 or 3 C for long periods.

Very unusual for Cornwall! Here is a gallery of images from that unusually cold start to the year.

 

To start viewing the images click on the thumbnail.

Once loaded, if you hover your mouse over the gallery you will see text buttons two thirds of the way up each side of the image. Click on the left to go back to the previous image and on the right to go to the next image. To exit the gallery click on the cross at the bottom right of the viewer.
