Iceni Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Well much to our surprise we had a little snow overnight and we also have a little snow falling now (9:15 am). No snow this early last year. Luckily we keep ourselves stocked up on food and warming liquid as a slight snow last year blocked the road. Log fire on, and the realisation that temperature has gone from high teens to cold and snow in about 2 weeks, probably be high teens in a fortnight. 1,500 feet up so we may not be typical.No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees No fruit, no flowers, no leaves, no birds! -- No-vember!Thomas Hood (1799-1845) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobdude Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Oh no! We are only an hour North of Limoges. Yet we are sitting here without the fire lit and with the radiators on so low they are barely warm. Strange! I'll let you know what happens tomorrow though. (We didn't see a flake of snow at all last Winter)Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butchx5 Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 HiWe are near Confolens - no snow (yet!) but cold and wet. HOWEVER farmer friends of ours had a rep visit today who had come from Limoges and reported 2cm of snow and still falling! Didnt believe them - now am not so sure.Anyone in Limoges who can substantiate this rumour???!!!Helen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

letrangere Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 We've driven Paris/Perigord at various times during the last two winters and have seen snow on the hills along the A20 for much of the way through the Limousin. In fact, we narrowly avoided road closure earlier on this year as a result. And driving that stretch through the stunningly beautiful Monts d'Ambazac even in summer it can be jolly cold when you stop and get out of the car. How high is Limoges? Somehow snow there doesn't surprise me at all. M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
