It's been 60 years since a freak weather incident left Wales, and the UK, under a blanket of snow for three whole months from December 1962 until March 1963.
The big freeze began with a dusting of snow but, by late December, very cold easterly winds were blowing in from Scandinavia and things soon escalated.
The frigid conditions would see lakes and rivers freeze across the country amid biting temperatures and there were even patches of ice on the sea. Huge ice boulders formed on beaches and blizzards caused snowdrifts up to 20ft (6m) deep.
