It's snowing

Started again here in South Elmsall

It's been +Degrees al day so a lot of it melted but now it's -1 it looks like it's going to settle and become a little slippy in the morning

The snow in 2010 killed off a small palm we had. Untill late spring 2011 when it made a miraculous comeback, and seemed to grow though the remnants of the old plant........at least untill the next major cold snap and it dies

Yep Winter 2010 killed our palm too, but for good

Got a new, more hardy one this summer, but its spent the last week in the garage to make sure!!

Bad now in Wakefield and to make it worse the wife has just been called into work.

GreenMint · 21 Jan 2013 at 03:00

Still coming down in NW Leicestershire, lets hope it carries on and the School I work at sees sense!

Still going here in Manchester, must be a good 4 inches deep now and it's showing no signs of stopping! No work for me tomorrow!

Eddie · 21 Jan 2013 at 03:26

Coming down heavy here in the North East.

If this band of snow is moving up the country and Manchester is still experiencing the same then we might have this for a fair few hours yet, which might mean a couple of feet!

Snowing quite a bit here, all the snow previously was melting pretty good and the ground was soaking, but this band of snow has settled and is about 3/4 inch thick and still coming down, i dont mind personally i love riding in the snow

Snowing in Sheffield. Wouldn't say it's awful, but they've sent half the building home because they can 'work from home' while us mortals stay here. Apparently it doesn't matter if we freeze to death in the car.

Like I say though, doesn't look that bad to me!

It's always going to be the estates that are the issue. I expect the actual roads to be OK when I leave work at 7.

Whether I'll get the car onto the drive is another matter.

We had loads in Ipswich yesterday,all settled and looks like its here to stay.

GAC · 21 Jan 2013 at 06:09

well just got up to walk the dog and it looks like we'v had a good 3-4 inches drop over night and its still falling, should make the walk fun.

Substance · 21 Jan 2013 at 06:16

The snow is pretty heavy here in Wigan today, I'm out driving a lot today too, I guess I will have to set off earlier. I really hate other drivers in the snow.

oldbag · 21 Jan 2013 at 06:41

Trains in south east seem to be broken

The roads in Milton Keynes are pretty bad now. The snow has been smoothed over, compacted and now turned to ice. Bad times.

The estates are very bad , driving through Linford Village was interesting.

Snow is nice,but cause so much traffic...
