Ok, How many got snow?!

Sorta guessed that the snow would come silently in the night as it so often does!
Our 3 yorkies were let out into the back garden as usual this morning and the brakes went on...!!
OH has a hospital appointment so think a phone call is called for.
What's it like with everyone else and where are you? We are in S Wales and it is quite thick on the ground and coming down steadily.
Will put wellies on and go and feed the birds once it's light enough to see.

Should have reached us last night but it changed direction and went north.
Got none at the moment but if it doesn't change again will be with us about 0900 -1000

Re: Ok, How many got snow?!

It hasn't reached Kettering yet but we're forecast to have about 3 inches, just enough to keep me housebound. I've ordered some of those grippers that fit underneath your shoes. Amazon are selling them on offer at the moment, less than £3 a pair with free postage if you are prepared to wait a few days.

Re: Ok, How many got snow?!

We have snow all week in Nottinghamshire, it didnt go away. The new stuff is due to arrive at lunch time and expected to get at least 4 inches. The hilltops and mountains are expecting a foot so Wales, Penines etc going to be covered. Those shoe things sound good Alan I will get my son to order me some as it could be like this on and off for a few weeks. Do they do cheap flippers for the rain

Been snowing off and on since 11.30pm last night, not deep, just covering the ground, but wellies on and a walk for Bailey before it gets worse, then go and fuel up, tummy and tankwise. The wind seem s to be getting up a bit now, and snow coming down faster.
