Snowing again here...
Since all the snow that fell over over the weekend and on Monday had only partially melted and what was left has frozen again the new stuff is settling.

Had to get a lift to uni yesterday and today because my bike was frozen solid, both days the cars thermometer went to -10 :O Still plenty of snow around here too. I've finished my exams so no more 'revision', I may get to play in it after all

My sister's in Norfolk and she's been snowed in. She lives at the bottom of a culdesac which is an ice rink and there were 70 accidents in one day. She had originally planned to come home for a bit but has had to abandon this.
How many of you have stocked up on food?

And now it's stopped. There's a light dusting all over covering up the old icy bits underneath! Walking to rehearsal for my band this evening should be interesting!
I also live in a cul-de-sac as well as being right on the top of a hill. Snow generally tends to stick around on my street for at least a week longer than everywhere else in town.

Snowing nicely here in Northampton again. Not much but just enough to be annoying in the morning.

This is Torbay. It will not snow. Or at least it will not settle if a dusting does appear.

Yes, that really is! Thankfully it's just a bit miserable here; a fairly steady -1 and just an occasional dusting of snow. I'm always "stocked up", even when I'm not. Even if I'm out of fresh milk and bread, there's UHT and flour. If I get snowed in for a month then I'll be craving fresh fruit and veg, but I have tinned. There's also my Scotch collection to keep my care less

Started snowing in Notts about 3pm and has carried on pretty steadily. It was snowing for my entire drive home and hasn't let up yet. Apparently it's -6 outside (which might explain why all the kitties are inside) and I can testify to it freezing the sweat in my hair on my way out of Body Combat a little while ago. Really looking forward to Squash tonight! According to my Mother it's supposed to stop mid-morning tomorrow, but the temp won't be rising so it's not going anywhere. The high tomorrow is -2

All this talk of snow, and we're getting none here. I suspect Chelmsford has its own microclimate. All the interesting weather seems to go around it.

I've put a sleeping bag and supplies into the car. The tank is full. The only things I don't have are a thermos for hot drinks and a snowshovel.
