Well, woke up to a white covering everywhere, yep, it's here, and the forecast for this area is 1 to 2 feet of snow getting heavier by afternoon

As do I, about a month or so before and 2 months after, and LOTS of it

No snow here on the South Coast, but it's about 3 or 4 degrees above freezing so I guess it depends if we get any precipitation this way

dilli-theclaw · 03-01-2008, 10:09

Mydad had to take me to school in a tractor to get me there. Only normally to find it was closed. (Phone lines were usually down at this point so we couldn't phone in).....

Yup - I used to be country bumpkin too

.... Some would say I still was too.

And it's started again, really hope that the weather men got it wrong, 1 - 2 feet of snow, that will cripple this area

3 inches of snow could cripple any part of the UK, we just aren't prepared for it.

Stopped here, expect to hear bangs at your windows depending what area of TS you're from.

Yep, the little scroats will be snow-balling everything, and I'm just down the road, Stockton.

Well, in the last 10 minutes it's gotten heavier, it's laid on the wet flags, about 1/2 inch has settled in the last 10 mins, 2 feet here we come

And I 'have' to go out in the car just now.

Still falling here in TS, flakes getting bigger too, And there was me going to go into town but now I'll play COD4 instead

Scarlett · 03-01-2008, 11:13

heavy clouds here in Cambs but no snow. I expect that we might just about manage 5 flakes before it goes to sleet.

Shame really because my cat goes mad (in a good way) in the snow, she seems to want to try and catch every single flake as it comes down. Last time we had a few flakes, she was bouncing and sliding around the garden for a good 10 minutes.
