It's whiter than ever today. Over the weekend no snow fell. It has been very slowly melting away. But last night! Oh dear last night! Talk about cold. Everything is now covered with a thick sheet of ice. It's more dangerous than it has been. Over so much ground the snow had melted, leaving it wet. Now it is just ice everywhere, a giant skating rink. All the worse because it is only if the light catches it that you realise what is safe ground & what is ice. The trees too are covered in white. The covering of snow here was so light that I never really saw the branches lined with white. Now you do. All very pretty but also oh so dangerous.
