My father Dr George Middleton is 88 and in rude health, cycling and body surfing most days in summer. His memory may ot be as sharp as it was when he was a youth, but is still works well. The other day, we was talking about the winter ahead and relating it to snow that he remembers in St Davids in the past:
1925: 6' drifts
1946-7: heavy snow and a blizzard in March
1962-3: Snow from Boxing Day through to March
1981: Snow storms in December
1982: 2' drifts in January
1991: Drifts up to 10' for 10 days in February
2010: Snow on the roads for two weeks.
