From a similar viewpoint to Image, we look along the pond during fairly light but persistent snowfall after a few days of cold weather, even for February. It is only this end of the pond that is frozen over, and the snow has settled on the ice. This is the first significant snowfall in the Bournemouth area since a light dusting in February 2015, and the heaviest since December 2010.
