Re: [Merged] Snow!
This will make you laugh, where I work they had a gritter come round putting loads of grit.
5 minutes later a snow plough came round and cleared the snow and grit.

Re: [Merged] Snow!
I was also this by a woman at work.
A teacher at her daughters slipped on the snow and knocked herself out, the head saw this and went running to her aid he also slipped and landed on her (a scene that was described looking like a prono movie) breaking his wrist in the process.

Re: [Merged] Snow!
Well, we seem to be finally getting some significant snowfall here. Only problem is, we had a very wet day yesterday followed by a cloudless night and the ground is now frozen hard. The snow is sticking and building up very quickly. We could be in a spot of bother here ...

Re: [Merged] Snow!
All my snow is gone 
1 day then the rain washed it all away, now it's really cold and icy.

We're supposed to be going to Glencoe for the w/e.
The webcam at the King's House is amusing at the moment:

But the ones down the road are a little more promising:

Re: [Merged] Snow!
took me longer to get to work today than Tuesday and the snow is clearing now.
Does anyone know if TFL \ South Eastern are offering a refund. It now seems that not only do I have a standing only, not at weekends and not late at night travelcard, it also doesn't work during the snow.
My friend from eastern Europe was why don't we just fit studded tyres every winter, sure we might not get this type of snow every year, but it would help for the cold mornings with ice and black ice and the times when we do get snow

Re: [Merged] Snow!
A light dusting on the roof tops here. With heavy snow forecast for 9am, I'm off to Tesco now just in case.
