The RNLI webpage has latest launch info so I'm in awe at Falmouth launching last night, in the dark, into low temperature and 90 knot winds, under volunteers. Incredible people
Respect is due there, for sure.
Why do we need centimetres for snow, who ever uses cms?
I do, and I was born in 1954. Working for many years in print and publishing, metric was universal for paper sizes, but then you have points, ems and ens for text. I use whatever measurement system makes most sense to me, so mostly miles, but occasionally kilometres, pints, gallons etc make more sense to me than litres, but then litres make more sense for engine capacity. 🤷🏼♂️
Still loads of snow around here , but now it’s that soft horrible mush with ice beneath. Lots of small local trees down more from the weight of snow than wind
Llandegla has been closed for days now
Still loads of snow around here
Looking from Chester towards the Clwyds I can still see some snow but guess it's on it's way out for now. The Capel Curig/Carnedd Llewelyn area looked pretty spectacular in the sun from West Kirby yesterday.
People still use inches??
I only use tabloid-approved units of measurement... olympic swimming pools, football piches, double-decker buses and how many times something will go round the world if placed end-to-end
... you forgot African elephants and blue whales
