It wasn't wet snow.. And we did drive, it was dry so really easy to drive on. It was below -3c most of the time.
"Wet snow" refers to the water content of the snow, not whether there's liquid in it. Dry snow would be powdery and not stick so much. We got a lot of dry snow last winter; we don't usually get dry snow much. Here's a few examples from last winter:
Spoiler
Dry snow is more common at very cold temperatures; think it was only -11°C out
Some photos from today and this past week. We are due thunderstorms later this evening and into tonight, I'll try and capture it if they are good enough.
This is near where I work, lovely lake area. Brown grass as we haven't really had any rain for a month now. Taken a couple of days ago http://i.imgur.com/RlyLDuQ.jpg
Cherries have been ripe now for a couple of weeks, they cause a huge mess though and attract lots of birds.. it's weird as most websites say that cherries in the UK ripen in July or August, this tree in my garden always blossoms in early April and has ripe cherries from some point in the last week of May http://i.imgur.com/vEFeoII.jpg
Nei it wasn't wet snow. We get that alot, it moved everywhere and sparkled in the moonlight.
It sure looks like wet snow from the photo, it definitely doesn't look like dry snow. It wouldn't be sticking on the trees if it weren't. I doubt you get much of any dry snow, we don't usually get much of it either.
