The weather consisted of strong north-north-east winds, heavy snow showers along with sunny intervals and temperatures that reached four degrees C. Passage was light on the seawatch, although 622 Gannets headed north over three hours in the afternoon – three Bottlenose Dolphins were also off the Swatch Observatory. Buckton Pond attracted two Wigeon and nine Teal, while there was some evidence of winter thrushes being displaced by the snow, including 25 Fieldfares north-east over Bempton Lane towards North Dykes.
