Extended Deadline

Due to the weather a few weeks ago, we have been given an extended deadline of the 11th January. This has given us a chance to re-film a couple of shots and just generally polish it up to make it better than it would have been with the original deadline, which is excellent.

!MET OFFICE WEATHER REPORT!

From around mid-December, cold air from eastern Europe dominated the UK weather. This was to be the start of a cold spell which would continue up to the start of the Christmas period.

Widespread frost, ice and snow affected some areas.

• The first significant snowfall occurred on the night of Thursday 17 December and into Friday 18 December.
• Parts of south-east England, Yorkshire and north-east England were badly affected, with particularly deep snow in parts of East Anglia.

By the weekend of 19/20 December the cold air had spread across much of the North Atlantic, effectively surrounding the UK.

• On Sunday 20 December heavy snow from the north-west affected western areas of Scotland, northern England, and Northern Ireland.
• On Monday 21 December heavy snow affected southern areas of England during the late afternoon and evening, as milder air from the south mixed with the cold air already across the UK. Snow was particularly heavy during the evening rush hour in parts of Hampshire.
• On Tuesday 22 December eastern areas of Scotland had frequent snow showers.
