Snowfall, Winter 2019-20 Better late than never
Well, after a winter composed almost entirely of wind, rain and relatively mild temperatures, the first snow arrived in Durham five days before the end of February.
Amounts aren’t huge (2-3”), but at least it stopped the winter from being thrown on the ‘No snow’ pile.
It’s melted rapidly though after turning to rain. By mid-afternoon, the snow had completely gone and air temperatures were up to about 6 degC.
Why You Need a Home Weather Station
Use a home weather station to monitor your environment, both inside and outside your home, or install one in your greenhouse to help you keep an eye on the conditions in the garden. Home weather stations can bring you all sorts of data on the prevailing conditions: temperature, humidity, time, moon phase, wind speed, rainfall as well as air purity and co2 details.

Have we ever had a no snow winter from your records?
Hi John,
Yes, there’s been several winters in the past that have been totally snow free. Have a look at the Bonacina snowfall analysis in the top menu for a record of ‘snowiness’ going back to the 1800’s.
