Cambridge Snow Photographs: January 2013
Cambridge 2000 snow home page
The second week of January, 2013, was fairly mild but it turned cold and
the first snow arrived in Cambridge the night of 13/14 January. This was
fairly minimal and, although it did not get much above freezing, the snow
mostly melted. A more substantive snow fall happened during the day of
20 January, accumulating around 3 inches (7 or 8 cm), mostly during the
afternoon and evening. It was a Sunday so there was no panic on the roads
from people trying to get home from work.
The weather remained cold and with hardly any wind so the snow remained on
the trees until Wednesday the 23rd. The cold spell was finally ended at
the weekend and most of the snow melted by Sunday the 27th.
