Snow a plenty
4th April 2018
It was fairly wintry in Glen Coe today. Overnight and continuing through the morning unusual amounts of snow fell mainly above 150 metres. The light North-Easterly winds backed to the North during the day and the freezing level was around 300 metres. Quite a contrast between morning and afternoon as the photos show below.

The pit site at mid-day…. 60cms of new snow lying on a refrozen icy crust. The grey coloured snow in the base of the pit is the icy refrozen layer
