Snow is epic, it's an excuse to stay inside and get off.

The forecast low maximum temperatures will affect far more people than the snow. If you regularly get snow from a NE wind in winter then you will get it.

My one gets all its data from Yahoo!/The Weather Channel. May aswell check the Met Office now too though

*Checks Met Office website*

It says 'light snow showers'. I'm less enthusiastic now :(

It was the best thing to ever happen to this country, next to Big Brother and you're calling it miserable?

I do love how England went OTT and made out it was bigger than it was, Anything for news reporters to squeeze a story out of.

I'll give you that Patrick right enough - they had bleeding Sky News scouring England 24/7 for any amounts of snow and treating it like a disaster on a par with the Pakistan earthquakes.

I'm not one for the cold Patrick! I should never have been born in Scotland and never in January!

Plus, I have a few big nights out coming up which will involve v high heels! Have you ever tried walking on snow in 5 inch heels??

Ormore to the point, have you ever SEEN someone trying to walk in th snow in their heels?? It is a cross between a newborn giraffe and a drunk old tramp! Not a good look at all, I think you'll agree?!

Aye it is arista ya wee bonne lad. I've heard about that, I may be going if I can get a group of us to go... although it seems abit pointless now when the headlines are dominated by violence. But at least I have made my stand.

Also, do I not get abit of praise for thinking up Snowvember? Its better that Snowmegedon of January 2010!

7 inches of the white stuff here and snowing hard. 2 hours to dig the car out is not so good.

Met Office now have cold until at least 27 dec

UK Outlook for Monday 13 Dec 2010 to Monday 27 Dec 2010:

The cold conditions are likely to continue. Precipitation amounts should be average or slightly below, with a risk of sleet and snow at times in many areas. Sunshine amounts are likely to be above average, although some southeastern parts may see more in the way of cloud. Temperatures are likely to continue below average, with widespread frosts, sometimes severe. However, some western and southern parts may be less cold at the start of the period in particular, but still with the risk of further rain, sleet and snow.

Finally got snow! It's been snowing most the day here, it has been so fun! I finished lectures at 3 and went back to my accomadation which is part of a student village... so it is literally all students - we had a huge snowball fight and saw so many randoms that I made friends with in freshers week and lost touch with.

Guildford , A3 today.

All these people stuck in Airports
moaning - what do you expect , all local Hotels are Full.
It would be better to check the Weather before going to the Airport.


On SkyNews
Heathrow says Closed
but a Reporter asked the boss why some planes were leaving.
Only a few on Terminal 3 or 5.
And only a few went.

Saying its Closed is Best
as people just Turn Up and
and think by magic all the Ice will be gone.


Check Weather Data before leaving - Common Sense.

One Woman Live on SkyNews now
has had enough of Virgin,
she was meant to go to SF for Xmas to meet her brother.
Virgin told her the next flight is 26th of Dec.

She was told she may be able to get a Flight
so thats why she went there with her young son and mother.

Yes Lady it is bad news
but you can not tell me that all the Ice with go away for your Flight.

Its not just Virgin at fault.

Heathrow's Terminal 3 became a huge dormitory
with passengers forced to sleep where they could find floor space
