I have.

I remember driving on the A465 one day and there was snow in Dowlais, I got to Brynmawr and it was like the Artic. How I managed to travel to Abertillery in which I took the old road through Blaina still amazes me. Got into the office to be told “Go home there’s nobody else here.” I got back to Merthyr travelling down from Abertillery. Ynysddu and Ystrad Mynach in comparison looked tropical. The micro climate there is freezing. I’m used to the wet but the cold there is something else.
