LFB firefighters and winter snows
The early winters of WW2 were snowy with numerous falls of 1-2 feet and occasional falls (such as 1940-41) in which snow depths of up to 16 feet (drifts) were recorded. The South was quite badly affected, although more particularly the South-West and Wales. 1939-40 saw the supposed blizzard of the decade in Scotland and England when in late January snow fell widely. The wartime firemen were kept busy keeping their station yards free of snow
