Hearing the reports of snow on the radio yesterday and seeing some of the pictures added to the VentnorBlog Flickr Group (like the one pictured here by MO-NIC-KE) and County Press from where were were in Ventnor, it was heard to believe.
In sunny Ventnor the sky was blue, the clouds light and fluffy and certainly far below the Downs, the closest we got to snow was about 10 minutes worth, which melted on contact with any surface.
