5mm in London? Surely the area will be declared a disaster zone?
It's snowing
- Thread starter VFR_KID
- Start date
I am concerned that the Tube will find a way to break under such conditions on my commute tomorrow.

Indeed roads in a bad state around here dont think gritters have done great job this time.

Just drove back from Milton Keynes, where there was quite a good dusting (about 5cm). It turned to sleet by Bedford, and just rain here in Cambs. Not nice weather for driving in, either way!

Needs to jog on.... I have my new tyres being delivered tomorrow and need them on urgent.

We've got away with it overnight, just a very fine dusting of snow on cars and some roofs. It's trying again now but won't settle.

Roughly 3 inches of snow in total this morning.
And 3 inches still on peoples cars driving up the A1 this morning, getting battered with snow.... morons.

About an inch over night in Derby.. And the morons are out this morning.

Been snowing well here in Hampshire for the last few hours and it's laying, even after all the rain we have had in the last couple of days.
Soldato
Yup, even here in Portsmouth...
Which is nice.
Which is nice.
It must be a UK (or just less snow experienced) thing.
We get plenty of snow here and no-one clears snow from their car apart from windows (even then I've seen a couple of people with portholes
). I suppose we're just used to driving around being battered with snow even when there is no other traffic on the road.

It's kinda different when the roads are bad and you don't get any motorcyclists. But when the main roads are fine, the last thing you want when on bike and a massive clump of snow in your face.
Furthermore, drivers who don't clear their lights at least.. They're oblivious to the fact they're in camouflage with their surroundings!
Fair enough. The snowploughs clear the majority, but the carriageways are still snow covered. The only thing with saddles currently are snowmobiles.
I agree with the lights thing. Seems Windows and lights are the only thing cleaned here. Emergency vehicles are the same.
I can imagine UK police stopping everyone to clear their numberplates too.

The cat thought it was a good idea to stop outside today despite the snow...I might have a frozen kitty when I get home later
