None in Plymouth but my daughter has had some on Dartmoor.
Very strong winds here and freezing cold. I think the dogs will have to stay in the house tonight and not in the Kennels.

We've got LOADS of snow, Amy!

Mind you, although I love the snow (and so does canine Kaz!), the conditions up here are appalling for drivers because of drifting snow. A lot of roads around me are blocked just now.

Fortunately (or unfortunately depending on how you look at it) I can walk to work even if it gets really bad.

There's more forecast for tomorrow too.

The attached image is from my back window this morning.

It seemed to be dry and powdery, the wrong kind of snow if you run railway trains.

As far as I am concerned your welcome to it. I want to see some decent rain to wash it all away

The gritting lorry has just gone up the drive so it looks as if they might be expecting SNOW?
More likely just ice on the roads though.
We never seem to get much snow in Plymouth, I guess it must be because we are right on the coast.

very pretty to look at, but if you do a lot of motorway driving like I do, it's hell!

We havent had so much as a flake of snow worst luck. I love it especially when it is fresh and crispy. Feel very jealous of all those parts of the country which are looking really wintery. I know it causes problems, but then if it rains a lot it causes problems in this house.

And as I can get around too much I could be sitting by the fire in the warm watching it snowing outside But no such luck

As much as I also love snow I don't think the people stranded on the M11 in their cars overnight becuase of it would necessarily agree.

I was supposed to be with clients in Cambridge yesterday, but it got cancelled at the last minute. If it had gone ahead I would very probably have been stuck on the M11 with them on the way back. Not a nice thought.

I like snow, but I'll be glad when it goes as well. I have to drive to Norwich on Tuesday so I'm hoping it will have gone by then.

I know what was all that about, blimey they can sort stuff out for a war quick enough, but put a bit of grit down on the roads, no chance. Just as well there was no emergencies or we'd have been looking at more deaths on Britains useless infrastructure. I remember once around here, when it snowed and they hadn't gritted, it took 2 hours to travel 3 miles to work. Pathetic
