Re: [Merged] Snow !

Re: [Merged] Snow !
Here in the Leicestershire area it is snowing and then it stops, and then it starts again. It isnt settling down and its depressing as I was soooo wanting to find a metre thick spread of snow in my garden this morning.

Re: [Merged] Snow !
Okay. A small group of us want to get some ski-touring practice this weekend.
Anyone know of any open moorland with a good covering of snow (and, preferably, few rocks too!) somewhere within striking distance of Warrington and/or Halifax?

Re: [Merged] Snow !
Dovestones on the road out of Greenfield, Saddleworth has all of that. Large parking area close to Dovestones reservoir.
Signposted on the right off the A365 Holmfirth Rd about a mile from the centre of Greenfield.

A635 surely... is that still open or has it fallen victim to the snow?
It's freezing here as well, snow's gone except on north-facing slopes as far as I can tell but it's still falling...
Snow's cool but the low temperatures isn't. I've seen so many snowmen

Loads of snow just up the road, in fact stuck my head out of the front door about 10 mins ago and it's like a blizzard.
I am so not looking forward to driving down south tomorrow, thinking about maybe flying or getting the train instead

Re: [Merged] Snow !
From the news reports one would have been forgiven for thinking that a huge swathe of the country was to be affected.I suspect that at least 3/4 of the working population got to work this morning because the reality was that only three areas were that deeply affected.

Yes, you are correct, my fingers were frozen when I typed that after digging out the car.

Still nothing in Cheadle....needless to say...I'm not happy.
Saying that, at least I have a higher chance of getting home alive!
