Blanket of Snow

The University of Dundee's satellite receiving station captured this image of how the heavy snow of the past week has affected the UK. The picture shows almost the entire country (with the exception of the South West of Ireland) covered by a blanket of snow.

The mean temperatures for November was the coldest across the UK since 1993.

A minimum temperature of –18.0 °C was recorded at Llysdinam (Powys) early on 28th, and a wind gust of 91 mph was recorded at Capel Curig (Conwy) on 11th.
