Our jaunts around the countryside have slowed down mainly due to the cold and rainy weather. It’s not a lot of fun sightseeing in the rain. We all just want to be inside our cosy, warm house eating hot soups and casseroles and munching on chocolate.
The temperature never seems to go above 5° all day long. It’s something very new for us coming from Mount Isa where our average winter’s daytime temp is between 20-25°. The day starts off very cold (and wet) and stays very cold (and wet) all day long, there’s no variation in temperature. So we are all hoping for snow to play with at Christmas even though it’s not common for it to snow here, it has snowed in the past. Tomorrow “flurries” are predicted for Bram (a village close by). I wasn't sure what a flurry was so I googled it...
What is a Snow Flurry?
Snow flurries are the lightest form of snow precipitation. Another way to think of it would be the wintertime equivalent of drizzle, but in frozen form. Snow flurries are often brief in duration, and very light. Rarely will snow flurries cause any type of accumulation.
It is also sometimes referred to as a light snow shower, and is classified as snow that meets the visibility requirements for light intensity snowfall.
