Calne in the snow 2018, Part 1

Overnight on the 17th of March, Calne had a good dose of snow from the 'Beast from the East'. While the snow was fairly light and powdery; it looked fantastic. I managed to get out early on the 18th and take some photos of Calne while the snow was fairly fresh.

By the afternoon, the roads were mainly clear and the scenes were quite degraded. Although this evening (18th), there has been a lighter scattering of snow. With the temperature expected to by higher tomorrow than today, I wonder if any of the snow will remain after Monday.

Hopefully you'll enjoy the photos below, with more to follow in the next post.
