Yeah, I'm in Gloucester got about an inch or so. Might be the last we'll see for quite a while!

Be one of the things I'll miss about the UK though.:D

Yep, it's the white flakes are coming down here in London, although not sticking yet.

Nope, no snow here, a sunny 30C, although spent a lot of time in the RSL this afternoon.

We've got about 2/3 inches of snow Here in the peaks.
Will be much worse higher up.

The sun is shining and it is beautiful.
Unless you have to go out in it in a car.

We got a inch or two here in Nottinghamshire.

Was fun driving to work at 6.30 this morning.

Guess I wont get any of that in Brissie.
Will miss the snow once we are gone always makes me feel like a kid again when I see it.

Wilts. copped it last night : Mr debtay said the high parts of the A303 were an arctic wilderness! ......:scared:
It was ok until the lorries couldn't get up the hills. This caused people to drive off down B roads where they had this urge to just abandon cars. Bit daft really when you don't have dogs and a sled handy in the boot.

There's a bit of Shackleton in some of us though and he made it home ok, 7 hours late. :zzz: (no dogs)

The hill we live on is never gritted so we don't bother to take the cars out when we have heavy snow.
I don't have to go anywhere and my wife uses the bus.

A bit inconvenient but a spectacular view from my bedroom window:)

Hi,

We're 15 miles south of Cambridge and yes ... it is white outside. Minor roads are passable but a bit slippery, main roads generally OK but a bit slushy. Bit blizzardly earlier but just odd flurries now.

Fraid more snow expected overnight and tomorrow ... probably might not be much but certainly a nuisance.

(Here endeth the weather report from the Cambridge area) :D

Take care driving tomorrow.

Glenda.
:)

No snow in Pompey... just bright blue skies and a few whisps of clouds... daffodils blowing gently in the breeze... aubretia and forsythia about to come out... ahhhh... the joys of spring!
