Unseasonal
covering of snow comes to Burnham-On-Sea
 Burnham-On-Sea
received an unseasonal dusting of snow in the early hours of Sunday
(April 6th).
Early
risers woke up to these scenes in the Burnham area, with wintry
scenes on Brent Knoll (above) and other parts of the town, including
Apex Park (right), Marine Drive and Cross Street (below).
Forecasters
said temperatures in the town had plunged below freezing overnight
as the Arctic weather arrived, giving Burnham its first covering
of snow
since March 2006. Further
light flurries were seen later on Sunday morning and afternoon
- although no further snow settled.
