Snow rarely lies on the ground at sea level before December or after March, and the average annual number of days with snow lying in England varies from five or less around the coasts to over 90 in parts of the Pennines. A day of snow lying is defined as one with snow covering at least half of the ground at 0900 UTC. The number of days of snowfall and snow cover varies enormously from year to year. 2, record 1, English, - day%20of%20snow%20lying
