It's snowing

Nothing more overnight. Our next batch is now expected tomorrow morning.

Currently got a steady light wet and sleety mix south of the river.

I was still snowing here this morning, looks like a winter wonderland outside ...it has stopped for now though but it's a foot deep on the flat where it hasn't been disturbed, you should see my back garden.

I've just cleared the paths, additional snow is hereby banned from from falling forthwith.

Nice walk today around near my work at Lytham. Oddly - almost no snow at all where I live north of Blackpool, nr Cleveleys, only 10 miles away:-/

Was that from the heat off your 3lb-er?

I love how ***ing retarded this country is. Everyone knew it was going to snow but around here nothing's been gritted. Checked the local news today, lo behold people crashing into everything. I also love that fact that we're surrounded by the sea yet we still somehow manage to run out of salt and grit.

We don't use salt from the sea though, we use it from underground no?

because year after year councils look at things to cut, and while we had many mild winters the cuts went on the gritting and snow plows. now we seem to be getting actual winters (still not bad ones no matter what the media and london people claim) things go to pot.

we used to have 2 wagons gritting locally 25 years ago, then the town council went in with the area councils and they got rid of one wagons and cut half of the side streets out, then the gritting went to lancashire county council and they did away with the the other wagon so we had no one localy doing it and it was all run from highways hq. then they cut all of the remaining back streets. so one main road through the valley and 2 little hills get gritted twice a day if we are lucky.

good game money saving muppets.

A lot has melted and what's left is turning icy now. Still forecast for another batch late morning tomorrow,
