Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow - And It Did!

Yesterday the local weather forecast for the Bradford area was a heavy snowfall, due to commence about 06.00, and, amazingly, for once, they just about got it right!

I was awakened by Ruby barking at about 07.30 (I think it was probably the milkman delivering the milk!) so I had a peep out of the curtains. Sure enough we had had a fall of about 4 inches of snow. As it was more or less undisturbed I decided I would take a few photos (from the relative warmth of our bedroom!)

It’s quite amazing how once the snow has fallen; everything seems to be shrouded in silence. It’s probably just that the snow absorbs a lot of the ambient sound, but the fall of the snow and the silence brings with it a wonderful soporific feeling.

I presume that the local school was closed this morning as I didn’t see (or hear) any schoolchildren, which I usually do from about 07.45 onwards.
