....and it came back again about 4.30pm and we've now got a good base layer for it to carry on into the night. That'll be the trains fucked tomorrow then.
Here too, it came mid afternoon, then melted just enough to refreeze as a layer of black ice.. Then a short while ago snow started to fall again. There's currently a light dusting of white on everything and I reckon it'll easily be a few inches deep by morning.
Nice snowstorm when I emerged from the Chunnel about an hour ago. Some snow on the ground here but it's worse towards Folkestone.

It's trying here in Gloucestershire; little flakes but with big gaps in between[/QUOTE] It was trying first thing - when I left about 9.30 to go riding there were little flakes drifting about but they got blown away by the baltic blast. Had a more serious flurry just after 6.. it's settled on the grass and melted on the paths. It's now mostly clear with scudding clouds and fucking freezing, so I expect I'll go a-over-t in the morning.
I gave up trying to fit a tail tidy to the thou earlier. The snow was blowing into the garage and it was fucking freezing.
Same here. I always hope to get an attack of common sense when it snows or it's icy but I never seem to be able to refuse the challenge of riding to work come what may.
I was going to drive up to Putney for a Nando's, but I've just taken a look out the window. ****. That.

But there was enough to cover the roads in places about 7:30pm
Meteo bloke just interviewed on Radio 5 said as much as 15cm (or 6 inches in English) is possible tonight.
