Re: Anybody got snow yet?
One of my friends didn’t get in to work today until almost one o’clock, staff where she works had been told by their boss not to attempt to come in if conditions were very bad, unfortunately we only had a dusting of snow here last night, the reason I say unfortunately is that she assumed going by all the severe weather warnings she was guaranteed a day off today and got completely rat arsed last night, she’s just text to say she’s suffering from a grade one hangover plus asking if she can sue the Met Office for half a days pay...

It's the TF1 but not as far as Santa Cruz, between Fasnia and Guimar.

Re: Anybody got snow yet?
Took some photos of the snow today.
Fredies bike is going nowhere...........
Snow on boats..........
Welney wash looking North, the dark bits are frozen water and until last week the road was flooded 2' deep. Many bird species spend the winter here from siberia etc but I couldnt see any. They should try Tenerife!

Seeing Cam’s Canada picture reminded me of a trip from the Ski Centre in the Cairngorms down to Aviemore some years back, we were in my mates car and I was driving, probably because I had had less to drink than him, the road had been snow ploughed and looked a bit like the Canada picture in places with the snow wall being six to eight feet high in places, there was still a covering of snow on the road, we approached the bend I marked with the “red X” on the map below, as we rounded the bend the car started skidding backwards towards the snow wall, we were not travelling at speed, but the car was going where it wanted, there was nothing else on the road at the time so I just waited for us to come to a stop in the soft stuff,,, soft stuff my arse, it was like hitting a brick wall, the snow was frozen solid,,, crunch... We exited the car unhurt to view the damage, a modified rear bumper and smashed lamp, mate wasn’t too much bothered as it reduced the value of the car from about £70 to £50...
Photo of road a bit further down the mountian.

All gone here on Northumberland coast that salty sea air however couple of miles inland its still bad but only snow we've got left is the shrinking mounds we've all created in clearing our drives.

We are on coast and normally lose it quick but a bit more lands each day. Very icy out tonight, it thawed for an hour earlier then froze over, roads are bad.

Spoke to soon, this morning (or middle of the night depending how lazy you are) there's a light covering of the stuff and its frozen after its landed drive to work will be 'interesting' at this time of the day.
