Bramble Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I gather we are still due between 5-10cm of snow here in the Cotswolds later tonight and into tomorrow, that's about what we had on Saturday and it was well copeable-with. BUT I just popped into Tesco and it was HEAVING - it wasn't that busy at Christmas and the cashier said it had been like that all day with people panic buying ahead of the snow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scubababe Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 snowing in Derbyshire & is starting to look quite heavy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 All that we have here is icy fine drizzle, the children think that i was overeacting this morning asking them to make sure they came straight home and that they took plenty of warm clothes with them. According to the Met Office we will be getting it lightly from 6pm and heavily at midnight. I am kind of hoping that everyone will have a snow day tomorrow so that we get a long weekend.

ClaireG Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 We've had a couple of flutters that didn't amount to anything today. The sky looks full of it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucky Mama Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 The school's annual gym and dance display has been cancelled tonight because it is supposed to snow heavily. I hope for their sake that is does now as people are really upset. Not a flake yet though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan08 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 It seems to have missed us again on the Wirral, but may not be so lucky over the next couple of days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 It's snowing lightly here in East London/Essex Really hoped we'd seen the last of it. It looks light, but that's how it was on Saturday night when 4" fell in a couple of hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplemaniacs Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Internet shop has just arrived I should have been a 7.00 delivery the driver said but he has been stuck on a nearby single track lane as a car was stuck, we have had about an inch so far but if a car is stuck on the lane it does not bode well for the morning and getting to school Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckmum6 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Snowing here again the ground is covered again, let the spaniels out for 5mins, they came back looking like sheep and shook themselves all over me yuck!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 It started snowing lightly about 7.30pm, and has been coming down really hard for the last hour or so. Rosie is hoping for a snow day tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looney Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Had a bit of snow earlier this evening, enough to settle. It has stopped now and just looks crispy! Our garden is still full of snow from last weekend, not sure we need anymore thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clucker1 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Can we just put a sign on our front gates saying "No to snow". Do you think it might get the message then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 It started snowing here at about 6pm. It doesn't seem to be coming down very fast but it is settling and there's probably about an inch on the ground so it must be more snowy out there than it looks! Thank goodness I'm working at home all day tomorrow and don't have to go out anywhere (hubby will be jealous ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Licken Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 It has been snowing here since about 5.30pm. Seems to be easing off a bit now, but if the temperature drops it will be treacherous in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Snowing here lightly but persistently too. The daughters plane is due to land in 10 minutes,but I guess it will be a slow drive back from Luton for her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 We have a mix of rain sleet and snow, only a dusting settled, they seem to be toning down the risk here, although I heard on local radio it is snowing heavily in Gloucester where the children go to school.

Christian Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Came back from dinner about 8ish last night and no snow. Let the dog out at 10.30 for a pee and 2 inches had falled It continued most of the night and we have a good 3 inches now. It is lovely out there. Will go for a long walk with Milo later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bramble Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 A couple of inches at most at home and a bit more at work (Cirencester). Roads have been well gritted, so driveable but covered in that horrible brown mushy slush! The biggest problem this morning was chiseling the frozen snow off the windscreen!
