photos and video: Burnham-On-Sea gets a covering of snowfall
Burnham-On-Sea
got a covering of snow on Saturday (February 4th) when a band
of winter weather swept through the area.
Snow
fell throughout the late morning and afternoon, giving a covering
across the town, including on the seafront and beach, as pictured
here.
While
key roads in Burnham and Highbridge were gritted, motorists were
advised to take extra care on minor routes.
All
Saturday's football fixtures in Burnham were called off due to
the weather, and Burnham RNLI postponed its scheduled fundraising
car wash, due to take place on Saturday morning, until next Saturday
due to the icy weather.
Milder
conditions quickly followed during in the evening, making the
snow short-lived. Much of the snow and slush had melted by midnight.
There was enough of the white stuff for a snowball fight on the
seafront
