Well its 4.45 and I can't sleep so I thought I would get up and see how many inches of snow we have. After the weather lady saying there would be between 10 and 15cm of snow theres none.
So how much have you got?
-
Theres snow here :D
Just got up and about a good inch id say :y
-
EP, we’ve got sweet F.A.
With these climate changes I must now live too far north the good snow we used to get.
We have about 1 cm yesterday morning, and it's still kicking around because it's been flipping cold since, but that's the only snow we've had this year.
:'( :'( :'(
-
About 1/2" at 6AM, but coming down heavy now....
-
Update
Just been out with black lab.....she came back white lab and i looked like a snowman ;D
Its now getting on for 2-3 inches....and still coming down :D
No im not going out this morning......peeps will be waiting long time for taxi's this morning and it will be busy.....but i dont see any sense in risking denting the omega or getting it dented.....for a few quid...and it'll take ages to get to and do jobs.....so no point going out.
Walked passed local hotel.....and always have deliveries this time of morning and the lorries are queued up in the road outside.....they always reverse into the loading bay and this morning they carnt get grip to reverse in.....i think they are nicking salt from the kitchen by the looks of it ;D
Listening to the radio....about 20 local schools are closed....and coach company that does school runs have said they are not sending out any coaches today.......
-
Were just getting a lite sprinkling but I wont be getting the skis out just yet.
-
Weather report from Derby... :)
It is snowing, but accumulation is just a skiffle right now.
Still snowing steadily but it is very fine (temp is below zero) so no huge amount yet.
This will change a lot if the temperature rises a couple of degrees c.
-
bah!
Yet again when some of you guys have snow i have none.
We havent had any this winter at all here in Lanarkshire, Scotland.
Today sees clear blue sky and a light frost!
-
Found about 3inches all round my car but everywhere else the gritters had been, was good fun getting out my road ;D
-

Just over 3" here. Managed to get to work this morning (BAH!!) but took twice as long as normal. Office is next to Stansted Airport and that is closed at the moment, but it's not snowing too heavily just now. Only 3 of us made it in to work and we all came in the same car - what a bunch of skivers I work with!! ::)
-
Heres a couple of snowy pics........ :D

Wonder if Timbuk made it today ::)
-
In Derby it has stopped snowing. I thnk the clouds looked down, realised the amount they were dropping was completely insignificant, and decided why bother! ;)
All these comments on the news about travel disruption etc... comical if you happen to live here! Barely enough to cover the ground!
-
Well I've been sat here at work being smug all day, only had about 1/2".
My boss rang & said he's not coming in 'cos it's so bad where he is (about 7 miles away).
So I rang home (5 miles) & there's 4-5" there, hope I can get back :o
-
6 inches in Inkberrow - only John the boss got in but it is a short walk for him.
I Netsupported from home to my work PC.
-
Nothing at all here think I might go and cut the grass :)
-
BBQ anyone 8-) ?

But expected more, the hills opposite are nice n white.

I recognise that little red car... ;D
-
Had shed loads here. I was snowed in and couldn't get to work, I daredn't go down the pegglesworth hill.
So, what better to do than remove an LPG kit? ;D
Pics and special thread to follow soon... ;)

LOL......with only 1" I'm not surprised :D ;D ;D
-
had about 4 inches here all told...... didn't occur to me to take a picture of my stealth Omega...... a black car pretending , quite succesfully, to be white.....
the Sintra looked like some giant Snow monster,.,,,,
it's noticeably heavier here in Sandford than it is just 2 miles away in Temple Cowley
Both Schools closed, so enforced day off as Child care wasn't arranged , and turned out to be snowed in even worse than we were ... and her poor little Mazda Mx5 is apparently allergic to Snow.
either that or she has no idea how to drive in Snow
so a day off for me, more or less.
Tomorrow however I have to get to work on site at a client's in Barford St Michael..... near Bloxham....
and it's not optional.
so i'm hoping the light drizzle turns into proper rain and clears the snow up
max

Wonder if Timbuk made it today ::)
Of course he did ::) Only about an inch here this morning, drove to Stoke and there was hardly anything, Started snowing in Stoke again about 4ish so we thought it best to come home ;)
-
I've made the sensible decision to stay at home tomorrow... ::)
At least I made it in Tuesday afternoon ::)

Yeah, now they're talking about all this cr@p re-freezing overnight. It could be worse tomorrow than it was today! Black ice not on my menu. Sometimes it's nice to not have a job! 8-)
-
The old bag needs to go in tomorrow, I thinks she's already getting worked up over it...
-
I see the wife's been busy then ::) but there again this is what snows all about for kids. My two little ones this afternoon, think they enjoyed it :)

... I walked to work :) ... but it'd stopped before lunchtime and has mostly melted now :'(
-
Went out for a walk an hour or so ago, still around 5" where it has been undisturbed. Most of the roads around back of my house it has been compacted down now with cars running over it.
-
I'ts been snowing here again for the last four hours, worse than yesterday :-/
-
Its raining here and its washed away all traces of the snow

After it freezing last night and making it really slippy after it mostly melted yesterday....the snow came down again this morning.....nothing like yesterday....but did start to cover a bit.....just got back from walking holly dog....and its raining now....just about cleared all the snow away....and instead of frozen hard ground (which i prefer....dog owners will know why!) its all wet and muddy again :(
-
About 13 inches of snow here. :D
It's a little cold, though; -33 (celsius)degrees for tonight.

I thought she'd like it, but it scared her. In fact, it scared me too.
It was the eyes. The eyes I tell you. Cold, unfeeling, watching. Watching every move.
That was the night before 'The Terrors' came. And after that night, nothing would ever be the same again.
Spurious pools of water where no pool of water should be.
Erratic 'carrot nose' manifestations. Sudden urges to sing "Frosty the Snowman" etc.
Please God, melt him, melt him away!
