Gallery: First Salford snow of 2016


SalfordOnline’s Facebook group is abuzz with pictures of today’s light snowfall over Salford.

Our readers are famously snap-happy.

It was only a tickle, just enough to let you know it’s there, but there’s still something about the first snow of the year that really gets people excited.

And even if it doesn’t stick, there’s still something wonderful about the visually transformative power of snow.
