ArtistsRifles Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Just driven home from Newark down the A1 - early parts of the trip were in 5/10th white out conditions due to heavy snow falls.

Tony B Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 The Capital, had a faint dusting this morning all gone now but still chuffing cold. I blame that lot in Kent, to lazy to push it over the North Downs. Quite bizzarley the snow seems to reach the bottom of Polhill and stop.

Enigma Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 If there is that much snow don't forget to remove it from flat roofs. It can get very heavy. And the general advice, take blankets with you in the car. In the Ardennen the car died in the middle of nowwhere, we went to re-enact so were well dressed. Still annoying to see icecrystals forming on the windows while wating for roadside assistance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoggyDriver Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Just looked at the forcast and noticed a Severe Weather Warning for Oxfordshire. We are forcast up to 16 inches of Snow!!! YES, bring it on. If it's that bad I will have to call in and tell work I'm not coming in, I don't want to be driving a truck in that!! Still will have to wait and see as you never get what they say... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
