chocchick Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Yes. it's a bit wierd though as it is lots of small light snowflakes so not much on ground yet even though it has been snowing for an hour or more. In Sheffield if it tries there can be inches settling in half an hour You DO have a lot of snow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali-s Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Yes. We woke up this morning to a light dusting of snow. I went back to bed after I let the chickens out and have just got up again. The snow has now melted and we now have drizzerly rain. There was a road closed in the area due to snow yesterday, and a road only opened on Thursday after being blocked for 4 days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freerange Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Lots of snow here, well for somewhere costal a couple of inches is a lot. I'm just about to take them some porridge & corn, perhaps with a few mealworms sprinkled on top. They're taking turns to come out of the eglu & sit on the rim of their dust bowl. Looks like DH has beaten me to it - he's out there hand feeding them corn (wearing just a tshirt ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 No snow down here, in fact we've got spring I've spent all morning in the garden, just come in for a cup of tea and a catch up before I get out there again. It's a lovely day, not exactly warm, but not cold either, especially when you're digging We've not had any snow to mention this year, and whilst I was disappointed to miss it all in Dec, Jan, Feb, quite honestly I don't want any now, I'm getting ready for Spring instead. Longer evenings too at the end of the month Yes we have snow here in Cheshire................I hope it stops soon Emily has an out door riding party booked for tomorrow night please make it stop snowing just for tomorrow...................Any ideas what i can do with 9, 9 year olds for 2 hours...............Help........... Oh, good luck Nicola, I hope the snow's only short lasting, and that Emily's party goes smoothly. Is it her birthday? You'll have to let us know so that we can post birthday greetings for her in the Special Day thread Although I'll probably be a day late again..... somehow I usually am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
