Photograph­ers out in force as snowfall hits

-

THE last day of February brought a surprise dusting of snow to town yesterday.

As quick as it had arrived it was gone again – but not before the town’s intrepid photograph­ers took to social media to share their snaps.

Irene Lea sent us an atmospheri­c picture of the snow on Ivy Lane, and John Stockton sent us a stunning image of fresh snow at South Park.

Paul Shatwell, who runs Deja Vu in Macclesfie­ld, shared a snap of the snow on the firm’s Instagram account.

He said: “Well I didn’t expect this scene when I opened the curtains this morning. Looks gorgeous though.”

The snow – which fell throughout the morning – had melted by the afternoon when rain began to fall.

According to the Met Office temperatur­es are expected to remain cold for the rest of the week.

There is no forecast for snow, however there will be some sleet tonight (Wednesday, March 1).
