All the roads out of home are presently closed, blocked with stuck trucks and buses! We've only had about half an inch!
The main roads through my little town are stuck solid. Have been since 7am, trucks, buses all there with their engines off while people sledge and ski around them. 🙂
Fortunately, I live well off the main drag so my road is blissfully quiet and mostly impassable, nothing will be coming down here for a while!
It's snowing heavily now; there was maybe 1.5" of quite wet snow this morning but it's properly snowing now. Looks lovely.

Snowing in north Leeds. Can't see Baildon Moor!
Lots up here above Halifax, local schools closed
Credit where credit is due the gritters and ploughs were out yesterday afternoon and the ploughs several times last night. They set the neighbours car alarm off with all the snow spray!
Snowing again now though, expected to freeze tonight
🙁
Sheffield centre wasn't to bad this morning, up at meadowhead and around the higher ground was a couple of inches. Took the side roads with winter tyres for the win. Best bit of driving was a guy stopped in the middle lane on Park Square roundabout clearing the snow from his windscreen that had just slipped down from his roof ha ha.
Whats it like down in London?
Have we done the "Swinging lampposts" on the M62, not strictly snow I suppose
Whats it like down in London?
Chilly and sunny, actually quite nice, no sign of snow.
Just been for a five mile run with beautiful blue skies and a crisp dusting underfoot. Lovely day out there.
White flavoured dampness in the air here in central Nottingham. Not quite enough to claim it as snow yet.
Started in Chester at 11:30
Caution. Windchill is around -28.0C at the top.
Heatwave!!! A cheese sandwich will freeze in the time it takes you to eat it in those temperatures.
Near Hexham, last night:

Some sleet in Dorset earlier.
Meanwhile, now back in Hampshire where early afternoon resembles evening due to dark sky and incessant rain.
Nowt here in the febrile hell pit known as the Midlands
Some ineffectual wet stuff earlier on which instantly melted on contact with the ground followed by that weird polystyrene ball stuff like visible drizzle
Fair bit now in Sheffield.

Anyone been over Blubberhouses on the A59? Pondering whether to send the missus on the train to Harrogate tomorrow...
Whats it like down in London?
Snowing in Reading :-), quite heavily for a bit arround 3:30
Melted in an hour though.
I've just had my teleconference with head office cancelled as they are all going home because of the snow - Oxted in Surrey, near Gatwick!
More worrying is I'm flying out of Gatwick Saturday morning. Hope it doesnt come to much!
At lunchtime here it was grid lock. Abandoned cars on most of the hills. Children sent home from school. Children playing, sledging building snowpeople 🙂
It's put down just over 5"
Seen some really bad driving today while walking into the village centre. Impatient people who think they own the road. No you can't just go up onto the pavement with pedestrians.
No thanks to the stupid council worker who was waving traffic through on a red light, when I was on a crossing with green man flashing. Nearly got mowed down by this woman, atm I'm not too fast on my feet and walk with a stick 🙁
Snowy and very wind chilled Baildon Moor with Jnr FD

Was it expensive importing them from the US?
For the second time today - "Woosh"
Bunnyhop and when they do crash it'll be the weathers fault, the cars traction control fault, should have bought a big 4x4... Anything but their ****ing brain.
Far, far west of Ireland. Only ever seems to threaten it; never stays long on low ground.

Not really that much here - and stunning day of sunshine, snow showers and proper 'crunchy' snow.

Putin's bombers back again?
Hora it was 4 x 4 drivers that mostly are behaving this way, some, not all 😉Bunnyhop and when they do crash it'll be the weathers fault, the cars traction control fault, should have bought a big 4x4... Anything but their **** brain.
What did I miss?
You, nothing. Someone else missed your nifty remark, and this also happened elsewhere today.
Still here, and -6. 8)

Hoping for another decent dump of snow in the next couple of weeks. They do say that we're statistically more likely to have a white Easter than a white Christmas.

Our world is going white tonight, again...
Still lots around if you know where to look

It works.
And it's made me think I need to revisit that spot.
Ps, the cruds didn't fit. Not acceptably anyway.
Random outburst a week ago in West Yorks, naturally on the one day I had to drive a mahoosive van (for me, anyhow)

It was like this yesterday in the dales.

Snowing hard this morning !

Bloomin British summer time = frost and dusting of snow.
😕
Snowing hard in West Bohemia. Feels more like Christmas than Easter.
Anyone else see this thread pop up and say "you're shitting me" out loud?
Crispy of West Yorkshire.
