I got up at 5am (germany time) thinking 'woohoo I have to drive to a course which is really far away in the Cat on empty motorways where I can really stretch her legs......'

....I woke up to 2" of snow!  :'( :'( :'(

Good luck Markie,
I think its more your neck of the woods, rather than mine.
I don't think its coming as far North as me.
My kids are hoping for a day off tomorrow though.  :-/
Take care dude!
