oldfart: Woke up to flakes of snow mixed in with a rainy day, about 8 miles west of Exeter, in Teign Valley. Though raining it was snowing on and off. Went to get some wood to light the fire at 11am and realised the lawn was getting white, despite it being really wet. Neighbour left and his truck was white too! Nothing settled but couldn't believe the snow was trying to settle on top of such wetness. Local BBC showed a gritter coming off the road at Warren House on Dartimoor, at about 5am this morning, the poor man had to walk 2-3 miles in the snow as no mobile reception!!! It looked white up there.
Lit the fire and watched the recorded prog from last night – Mark Beaumont riding through the America's! Warmth + cuppa = bliss!
Yep. Wimp.
