In the Glyders on Saturday there was a small snow patch in a hollow at 985m. I would estimate that the patch would have disappeared today.

Friends in the Carneddau reported several small patches.

Thanks, Retep. This looks to me like a vestige of recent snow, and not from the falls of early April or before?

Thanks for the explanation on the previous page firefly... more or less what I had presumed so good to have clarified.

Any update on English patches? I'm doing Scafell Pike on Monday, I'm guessing there will be nothing in the Lake District by now?

Thanks, rick, but the last snow disappeared on the 18th May, at Brown Cove. I should have updated everyone! I will forward a copy of the paper to those who contributed on here when it's published, probably in the autumn.
