Re: Snow !
Dry & no sign of anything in South Cardiff . Even the guys that come down from the valleys say no problem -YET. ( wives call for them to go home before etc etc). Wondering now if I should "borrow" the bosses "tank " in case of snow tomorrow instead of my cheap ( in more ways that one) city car

Re: Snow !
Surely with a red warning, give up on the shovels and rush out today to make sure you have got all the essentials for a few days such as bread, milk, and booze, along with a good TV guide so you don't need to go out

Re: Snow !
checked east coast they reporting to start 1600 friday not stop until late monday. Crikey if this is heavy think we could be in for more than 10cm at that rate. We low land. God help this area council useless idiots failed to cope at 2cm. Grass here full snow but major roads cleared finally last 2 days our council been absolute garbage. We have had little gritting or snow clearing left motorist in mess. crashes galore. I laughed when news said it had not caused disruption as councils been prepared. Its been chaos with delays buses trying to negotiate roads more akin to ice rink for two days. First by snow yesterday/night -4 to -7 temperature. Though last night grit would not helped I believe as grit fails at this temp.

That`s a large area with lots of highs & lows - Last time we had snow my biggest problem was opening the gate at home. Once on the road even the city car worked. Lots of staff said can not get in - two left company after I drove to their homes with no problem & offered them lifts in

Apparently according to my brother who lives in the Midlands some places could get 8 to 10 inches of snow.

Re: Snow !
Well snow is due here at noon tomorrow, so I'm expecting to have to dig my car out a 7am tomorrow.
