JennyMorgan Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 It raining like there's no tomorrow right now, if it turns to snow then I'm staying put. Turkey & sprout soup, turkey curry, turkey marengo, mince pie & sausage roll soup, well, I'm sure you get the picture! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadScot Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 I wish it to be known, I take NO responsibility at all for the snow. I did NOT send it from up here Personally I blame the BBC Weather lot for getting it wrong...again Seriously i hope everyone stays safe. Iain.

ranworthbreeze Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Last night was utter bedlam in Sheffield, cars abandoned all over the place, no trams, no buses and no gritter's out until about 9 o'clock, reports of people in there cars for over two hours traveling less than a mile. By 10 o'clock it was still snowing and we had around 6 inch of snow, it takes less than an inch to bring Sheffield to a standstill because of our seven hills. The snow and the Christmas lights made a lovely scene, great when you are indoors. Regards Alan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siddy Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Didn't expect to see it still here this morning but top 4" of the windscreens are clear then it frooze so the 2" on top of the bin are solid now.

SueH Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 We thought we were going to get this where we are near Peterborough, but we only got the rain which gave the caravan quite a dousing. If I had known I would have covered it in shampoo and let the rain wash it off! Not far away from the worst it appears, surprising the difference a few miles makes. Good luck those of you who are suffering. SueH 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 "where we are near Peterborough, but we only got the rain" We live in Stamford, about 10mls away from P/boro, and we have about 2" of snow which settled overnight. Thawing now though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clive Posted December 27, 2014 Author Share Posted December 27, 2014 Our youngest daughter asked me to turn out at 6-45 am and help get her off our road as we live on a hill as she had to get to work at Mac Dees on the high street at Sheffield as she is in charge to day so she had to be there so I jumped in the Mondao and towed her up the hill and onto the main road which were reasonably clear at which she set off and I can only presume she got there as I have herd nothing from then she like me and Kathy love our boat and cant wait to get back she likes it best as her phone has no signal down there making it so work can not contact her.

marshman Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Typical Broadland weather here - no snow, no ice, no wind and lovely sun. Long given up with Met Office and local BBC weather - neither hardly ever get it right especially the BBC!!! They should stick to what they appear to do best!!!!

ranworthbreeze Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Dug the car out this morning, ice on our road and the next, only slush on the main road. Over 9 inches of snow on the cars roof. I took our Michael to work this morning (I fitted my winter tyres on before I came down to the Broads at the beginning of December) and I needed to call into work to invoice a couple of items we had sold and take them to the post office. They are tipping -5 degrees this evening so the thaw we have been having during the day will only cause more trouble in the night and early morning.

Wussername Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Calm down everybody. Everybody is comparing inches. This is not a good start to the new year. We need a bit of decorum. Mine is bigger than yours. Sometimes bigger is not best. It really comes down to experience. Here in Norfolk snow is talked about in centemeters. I feel happy with that in most things.

BroadScot Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Places like Aviemore http://www.winterhighland.info/cams/aviemore/ and Braemar snowgates are worth a look sometimes. My sliver car is now white with frost! Iain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPEEDTRIPLE Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 We`ve not had any snow, but the cars and the garden were white this morning. Thank god we had a log burner installed, it saves us HUNDREDS of £s a year in gas bills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
