Was chucking it down for about 40 mins in Solihull earlier but only amounted to a few mm on side roads and nothing on mains, massive flakes though.

Was enough to get the back end out pulling out of the girlfriends street though lmao

Well we had a dusting on odd places like walls bins but none on roads. The forecast on the radio is warning of lots of snow today but the bbc and met office sites are showing an orange alert but only forecasting sleet.

I have to take it all back, the weather forecasters were right... Snowmagedan struck here last night... I woke up at 4am, nothing, then at 7am I was wondering if we would be able to get out the front door.

It was blizzarding, so badly, visibility must have been down to 4 or 5 miles, and I thought I may need some major Snow shovelling just to get to the car.

Once there, I am pleased to report that the T2 started with out a hiccup, and drove the 3 miles to the train station and back with out so much as a slip from the wheels in 2 wheel drive the the way, despite my wife pleading the whole journey that it might just be safer to take a "Snow Day". I explained "Us Real" 4x4's had to show the rest, and get through, so we carried on regardless of all the Chelsea Tractors with their Yummy Mummy's scattered on the grass kerbs, hundreds of kids in tow.

It was touch or go on the train front, but after a company meeting, they decided this apparently this was the "Right type of Snow", and they would just run the trains... late... rather than cancelling them.

So just to show you how bad it was...

 

[briggie]

absolutely chucking it down with snow here in west yorkshire , big flakes falling fast and settling too , might take a piccie , but its lethal outside for me
