    Cheers. I think I'll see can I rearrange some stuff for today so. Only had to go as far as Belfast but I'd say even if both lanes of the A1 reopen it'll be fucking bedlam.

    Trains seem not to be affected by the snow so I don't have to set off for work early, I don't think. And that's pretty much all I ask.

    Slush but nothing major. 2 inches on the cars and all but roads too wet to stick.

    Cloudless blue sky and bright sunshine here in King's Landing, not sure what you're all on about.

    To be fair the addicts hanging about the chemists are much like white walkers.

    Only less intelligible.

    There was fuck all in Belfast either. Only decent fall had been between Dundalk and Hillsborough.

    The walk home there suggested that by the morning if it's cold enough we'll have a lovely, rock-hard skating rink for me to try and not die on.

    Fucking Scotland.

    Our living room looks out onto a road that has a fairly steep incline. Whenever it snows, there is excellent entertainment to be had in sitting by the window and watching cars struggle up it.

    This happened about an hour ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrByAQDSLTQ

    -1 with snow in Poland right now. Apparently it 'feels like' -6 which sounds about right.

    So the BEAST FROM THE EAST (not Mahow) will be starting on Monday night which sees, according to the weather app, constant snow for 7 days.

    Fingers crossed. Just so long as it's snow where you can't get out of the driveway.

    I thought the Brits were pussies for declaring a national emergency at every snowfall, but I've been in San Diego this weekend and all I've heard from the locals is about how distressing the 14 degree highs this weekend have been

    I've just done a journey that was mostly above 1100ft, with the highest point being 2200ft. Thank fuck it was today and not tomorrow.

    Housebound for the rest of the week.

    Supermarket shelves have been cleared here and little plastic sledges are selling like hotcakes.

    Blue sky and sunny at the moment and the last time it snowed even a little bit was 5 years ago. Exciting times.

    There was much wailing and gnashing of teeth in the office earlier about how we're all going to get snowed in. As if that's happened down here in the last 50 years, it'll be a bit cold with very little if any settling.

    I'd need about 3 feet in order to be off work so it's basically meaningless up to that point anyway.

    We had about an inch settle first thing this morning, and it's been snowing all day so far.
    Didn't let it stop me driving miles to work, but then I drive a chuffing great Volvo that would go through snow drifts.
    We're supposed to get snow every day this week

    It's too cold to snow over here and if it did warm-up, the suns too out for it to settle. You'll be fine. Barely anyone on the continent has mentioned the weather, think it's just everyone in the UK going a bit Daily Express.

    It's pathetic. Main item on the BBC news is the weather, and it's just a bit colder than usual. I'm in the supposedly HARDEST HIT part of the country and there was 0.5cm of snow, maximum, and even that was only there for an hour.

    Our weather warnings for yesterday suggested everyone should get home for 6pm and stay off work today unless you drive a snow plough. We are a nation of absolute fannies when it comes to snow.

    things are running along smoothly though

    Quite a bit of snow (relatively speaking) here today.

    Some idiot managed to roll their car this morning which seemed to spook the government into shutting all the schools down. I often wonder what these drivers are up to normally. How do you roll a car at 30mph?
