Hi everyone

Here in part of Lancashire we have had very little snow where as the rest of the UK seems to have had there own snow and more.

So you now know were the snow has not been.

 

Best regards

No snow, just very very rainy and I can hear wind whistling round outside.

Still all our snow lying and frosty as heck again - its over -9.4 already and last night unofficial at Nethy bridge about 23 miles away was -23 - brrrrrrrrrrrr bad enough here last night and may be as low as -18 tonight.

 

Heating bills are going through the roof now.

Quite a blizzard blowing now in east warwickshire, have to say the forecasters have been very accurate the past few days. They said it would start at about 8pm, and we noticed it just as Dr Who was finishing at 7.45. Kids wittering on about tomorrow's snow day already. OH and I enjoying winding up eldest son that if they have 5 snowdays that will count as half-term and half-term next week will be cancelled.

He's not falling for it but I spotted this article today so might add weight to the wind up with this:

look at this - this is aviemore near to me

[Bantambabe]

Wow, that is cold Make sure you wrap up warm, wrap the eglu up etc or just bring them all indoors

 

I went to Moscow in Feb in 1993 and it was -16 by day; made your nose click as you breathed in and the air froze the moisture in your nostrils - most peculiar sensation

[Charlottechicken]

Snowing in Birmingham now, on top of the rain we've had all afternoon Should be interesting for travelling to work tomorrow, I think I will be on the train

Not sure if I like the sound of that Did you get used to it?

[Blackrocksrock]

Wow, that is cold Make sure you wrap up warm, wrap the eglu up etc or just bring them all indoors

 

The girls seem to be warm enough with no blankets on as i checked them at night and we have so much snow on top its acting as a blanket on them - they were fine but hate the snow.

The nostril thing funnily enough is not a problem as I think its a dry dry cold just now and doesnt seem to do this like it did when we were younger.

Has Angels4 said how cold it gets there. He has his in an eglu and plenty of snow.

We've had snow here since about 7pm - wet slushy stuff, but it's coming down at such a rate that it is settling on top of the freezing rain and ice that was already there

[ClaireG]

Same here Clare

[Redwing]

Same here, its even settling on vertical surfaces now

[Egluntyne]

We have had a heavy fall of snow overnight. No sign of the gritters, even though we live on a busy A road.

 

'Appen they have run out.

 

Bin day today and as they weren't emptied because of the weather last week, I'm guessing they won't be emptied today either.

[Lesley]

Same here E - although ours came later in the week and then emptied the recycling which wasn't die to be done 'til this week!

 

We had heavy rain all afternoon and evening - but by 8.30 it was snowing and settling Snow on top of frozen slush I'm glad I made it outside yesterday.....I'll be staying away from the ice today.

 

No power in the next village - I've had to check online for school closures for my daughter.

[Lesley]

....and it's snowing heavily here again

[Egluntyne]

Gritters stuck in traffic outside my house now.

 

Brilliant sunshine at the mo.

[Cinnamon]

No overnight snow for us,even though we expected it - girls are miffed about having to go into school today

 

Nasty & wet out, & the drain in the road outside my house if blocked again,making my downstairs loo gurgle & have no water in it

[Christian]

The snow fell thick and fast for all of 2 minutes a moment ago. Nothing now The sky does look full though.

[The Dogmother]

Well, it was still snowing when I went to bed last night, but can't have done it for long. This morning we have 1-2" on top of what was left yesterday; slushy stuff and lethal to walk on (stay indoors Lesley).

 

The wind is blisteringly cold,but the gritters were out last night when I went to collect Rosie from Guides.

 

Our bins weren't collected last week either Egluntine - our road was a skidpan; they collected this morning though - not normally a collection day, but I'd left the bin in the front garden in hope. Bless them, I wouldn't want to do that job in this weather.

[ClaireG]

We've had another 1 - 2 " as well and its just started snowing again now.

[chickencam]

It started snowing here at about 9pm and continued heavily until about 1am, it was pretty windy too.

 

The children were convinced that another snow day was on the cards, but by this morning it was thawing fast and although the roads were very slushy it hadn't got as cold as predicted over night so it was wet rather than icy.

 

It is normally quite nice walking in snow, but this morning when I took YD to school it was really sqishy and wet and we had to keep well away from the roads because of spraying slush

 

I am not looking forward to tomorrow morning if it freezes overnight because it is so wet everywhere. I haven't seen this much standing water in my garden since the summer of 2007, everyone is getting very worried about flooding now.

[The Dogmother]

It's sunny here now, but still with that biting wind.

 

The snow is still lying on the grassy areas and off the main roads, but it is melting fast and there are large pools forming now.

[Paola]

No snow here It has rained a lot which has caused local flooding Thankfully the snow and ice that was left is disappearing
