It has all missed us in Norfolk unfortunately. There is a chance of some around the coast later, and I would go in search of it if only I knew where exactly to go! They keep changing their minds as to where it is going to be!
Apparently this light dusting has resulted in forty five accidents, plane delays, runways being shut, and fifty school closures.
Why is our country such a failure at coping with snow? It's not even snow, it's a bit of white dust on the roads!
I can understand the car accidents a little as the gritters (in rural Suffolk anyway) haven't come out to play yet, and the roads are quite slippery in places. BUT, i dont understand the plans and school closures. Its madness. Normally its the school boilers that are on the blink, but surely they have had the heating on before today

nearly every single time there is snow my daughters school shuts due to the boiler.
whats wrong with them wearing their coats in class?

most likely down to the increased number of cars with low-profile tyres. Used to be more 'sensible' cars on the roads, now theyre full of Audi A3s etc.
I drive an A3 and its the worst car I've ever had for driving in snow. I was on here last year asking if anyone knew why and apparently its all in the tyres :cool:

So get new tyres? Just because they're low profile, doesn't mean you can't get a set with a better tread.

Bad in Sussex with the traffic, but all melted now.
Spoke too soon - it's coming down heavy again.

And to think some people love winter. Roll on springtime.

As would the UK is we had your climate. if Sweden had the UK's climate you would be as bad as we are.
There are live TV interviews being done on College Green at Westminster and I see no sign of any snow there at all.
