abwsco Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 We've had snow today but it's all gone now. Can't believe how blummin cold it is though now so the heatings back on We used 30% more gas in December '10 than '09 so just hoping it doesn't go the same way for January.

Purplemaniacs Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Busy day weatherise, frost, snow, sleet, rain, wind and a helping of fog - just no sun! Driving home from school I thought what a funny day weather wise, set off this morning no frost but wet and misty, by the time I got to school in Rutland a little snow in with the rain. As the children came to school big flakes that quickly covered the playground, ended up with a couple of inches of slush. Driving home at 3.45 VERY dark, foggy and then by the time I got near home heavy rain. As chuckmum6 said everything but sun At least the driving conditions were ok when I was driving, had been tricky at times in Rutland according to some of the parents.

ali-s Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 We had a little snow Thursday evening which froze solid overnight. The roads were dodgy first thing Friday morning but all the snow had gone by the time I left work. Woke up this morning to about an inch of the stuff and it is still falling. OH was out at 6am clearing the drive as he has to go to work. I thought he had left for work but I have just let the Dog out and I can hear him clearing the snow from the lane, I can't see him as it is pitch black out there but I suspect he will clear all the lane before he goes to work.

Old Speckled Hen Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 I've heard Edinburgh airport closed till lunchtime. It snowed mid November so winter seems so long. Keep your chin up everybody up there and keep warm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissie I didn't go out until lunchtime, but there was a car off the road covered in police tape just outside my village, so must have been pretty slippy out there!

ali-s Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Snowing again which is settling on the snow from the weekend which had frozen solid. Need all this snow to stop now. DD has exams for the next few weeks and she needs to be able to get into school, she has already lost quite a few days schooling with the school being closed and then the rural school bus not running because of the bad weather.

Ain't Nobody Here Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 We've had more too . Luckily just a light covering but it's on top of the couple of inches we had already. I just want it to clear so OH can get back on his bike and let me have the car . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouldercroft Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Yes it's snowing bad enough that work closed today (a very rare occurrence - this is the second time in my 12yrs in the US). Blizzard, snowthunder, white out conditions and its still snowing! We opened the door but couldn't actually see them...I'll dig them out after breakfast... photo by jewilk71, on Flickr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reikiranf Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Wow! that's a lot of snow, I hope that you and your girls are ok, mine never want to freerange in the snow, I open the run door and they peer out, then look at me as if to say "Do you think we're stupid?"
