We've got a light dusting so far .. maybe an inch at most (no jokes)



Anyone trapped inside?

 

In Sheffield only a few flakes.

 

We got the other snow storm. Wimp from the west

 

I've had more dandruff.

 

1cm in Wakefield, 90m above sea level.

 

This severe weather is shocking..... it's so severe that I got to work quicker than normal.

 

Not a flake here on Costa Del Solent the sun is shining and a beautiful day. My mate in Maidstone has over a foot of snow over night and won't be going anywhere as the roads haven't been cleared so just chaos and not worth the risk.

 

South of me is bad, but I missed it

 

Keeps trying here in Scunny. Woke at 6.30 to a fine powder about 2cm, by 8.30 it's gone, at 9.30 it snowed again for half an hour, big flakes, settled nicely, now gone again.

TBH, we are now on what the PratOffice say is the southern edge of the heavy stuff...although yesterday and Sunday they were saying the whole of the eastern seaboard would get 5-10cm.

Their computers must be malfunctioning again, LOL

Oh, and what's with the media trying to panic everyone? And WHY does the PratOffice always give snow in cm when they want folk to worry? We still use the UK measurement system last time I looked? Inches, feet, yards etc.

 

Weve had repeated 1/4 " laying , all burnt off by the sun ( south coast )

presumably overnight it would build

 

Not that bad here , just annoying as i,ve dropped the scoobs keys

 

 

Very deep here.

 

snowing proper manner here in north devon just need a bit more then off out to try out the winter tyres

 

love the way they use cm to make it sound more dramatic

 

Nothing yet in mid devon..

 

Bugger all in Harpenden Herts, light dusting at most!

Luton Airports functioning as 'normal' too!

 

Well......... what was it like?.


Got Nokian WR D4 winter wheels for the scoob,( i know we don,t reallllly need them.)

but you,re got to try winters just to feel the difference to stock tyres.

and have a laugh...........

 

had about a inch so far with more forecast for later on, am waiting on a snow report from a mate who lives just shy of exmoor

 

Really was a slow news week...as always...

 

If it isn't immigrants ,petrol prices or brexit, we are going to die from snowlfakes,lol

 

01.19 stuck on the A1 at Stamford , heading to London , snow was bad at home ( Newcastle then nothing much from wetherby to Grantham . Now it’s chaos , road hasn’t been treated some HGV ahead have ran off the road & blocked it , + I’m on a incline now no chance I’m goin anywhere soon diff lock or not / nothing is passing on north bound either , so that’s goosed also , it’s -6 ‘c
But got the night heater turned up so along with my coffee I’m just taking it all in .

 

hope you reach your destination safely

 

Cheers zany . Still sitting here , , getting interesting now 3hrs +

 

About 6cm now in Wakefield, sons school closed.

 

6' snow blast for South East , Thursday night now apparently lol

And its coming up from below

So the Beast from the east is,fiction

 

Just takes one idiot at the front to mess it up for everyone else. Feel sorry for the guys with all the gear (winter tyres, snow chains etc.) that get held up due to some Jack knifed power-shifter running eco max super hard enduro tyres that has to avoid Mrs Moggins panicking in her Dacia (used to have a Micra) that brake tests for no reason.

Even where it has fell deep, It's not that bad, we had worse before Christmas. Which luckily fell over the night and weekend meaning all the idiots were stranded on their drives leaving the roads reflectively clear for everyone else to crack on.

And of all these stranded vehicles blocking the way I bet they are running Chinese/Indionesian rubbish designed for max mileage rather than cold grip...especially HGVs. And does anyone have a spade in the back? Let alone snow socks or chains?

It's not like we weren't warned: I've had a shovel and rope along with my snow wellies and thermal camping coat in the boot of my Golf (AWD) since Christmas!

 

Th Emerald Isle got it aswell

 

Bout 10cm now

 

About 6inch overnight on costa del Canvey with freezing temps all day which means it's all sticking around.

Watching all the dick head rear wheel German cars this morning was hilarious.
