Sounds a bit bleak Paul - a lot of Europe seems to be affected, so it's fairly widespread...

Are the three takes above all processed differently? WB perhaps?

I've had to answer "Less than 5 cm" as there was no option for "Less than 1cm".
We had just enough to cat the pavements before it then froze, turning them into skating rinks! Forecast for today is rain

Can I have some of your snow?

Where it hasn't been compacted there is over 40cms here in Blyth, Northumberland

We have about 14" (in old money) here in Chester le Street and -6.5, so not much chance of it melting.

Waved the wife off to work this morning at 8.15am. She moaned as usual, its cold I've got to walk to the bus stop, the bus will be late and it will be cold ..

I checked the thermometer in the garden. It was only -10. Wimp I thought as I went back inside and made a lovely hot coffee

I've just got to persuade the dog that he does not need any walks today

I picked 'Over 30cms', although it's not quite, but the 25cm option didn't exist.

My bit of Hertfordshire may have had an inch. May have... Cold, but not a lot of snow.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

I knew it was going to be a cold one, coming home last night the tempreture cauge in the car dropped from -3 to -6 in the space of 2 miles. oddly enough when I reached home and got out of the car it felt quite mild

Bit nippy today though, I'm out in the garage doing some work and I have a 2Kw fan heat and a 1.5Kw oil filled heater on full and its only taken the chill off, now I've had my lunch and looked in on the forum its time to brave the cold again

If I can remember to bring a ruler out of the garage next time I come in I might answer the poll

-9 and around 30cm of snow in this part of North Yorks. Have not managed to move my car since Sunday and haven't seen it since Tuesday (I think it is the larger of the 2 igloos that have appeared outside my house!)

No matter how many lenses I have owned - I have always needed just one more
