Good morning from Geto.
Well, snow through most of the day yesterday and so I am perhaps a little surprised that there is only 11cm of fresh to report this morning.
This morning snow is still falling lightly. It is colder again too which I am happy to report.
The forecast seems to show the chance of some breaks in the cloud later on in the day. Whether that will happen or not...
Today is the last day of the New Year for those lucky enough to have a longer holiday. From tomorrow, it's back to a normal Monday.
