What's it like where you are?

Going out about 10-ish snow flurries Waltham Abbey, Essex not that bad, no snow on the ground only a sprinkling on the grass areas.

How's the "beast from the east!" in your area!

Anyone got THUNDERSNOW!

Donny is showing temps of 1 n 2.  Sun is shining but its bitter cold.  Dont think its meant to hit us till Wednesday. But if we get the snow, it typically means that everywhere else has it bad!

Good luck Nathan.

I'm gonna grab what money I can.

Tuesday or Wednesday gonna be the problem here if the experts are right!

Would have not been so bad but with all the problems I had before and after Christmas, van packing up, etc.

Feels like a long slog this winter.

Glad others have remarked on it.

Thought it was just me😁

Re: Soupy's Comment. Hopefully it will thin out the heard a bit, this weather sorts out the men from the boys. There are a lot of new window cleaners about now; and expect it to get more competitive as more people are made redundant from thier high pressure low paid jobs.  Difficult weather will hopefully make them jack it in.

I live on a single track country lane. No gritters etc.
We've got snow today, about 1-2" on the ground so I'm stuffed. My van is terrible for traction with the weight of water in the back. I'm not risking it. It's all downhill from my house whichever way I go out. And I won't be able to get back if I go now.
It's only the first forced day off all winter, which is pretty good innit!!
