    Yes rich--lots, it's the wet sticky stuff but its still drifting about in the wind. Sticking to windows, walls, fences etc.

    I really do wish people would have the brains to use their headlights in this sort of weather and remember to clear the snow from the lights and windows before setting away!

    in a word; horrendous (at least up on this hill)

    think the east coast is getting the brunt of it - it's clear here - even had a spot of sunshine

    We had a lovely sunny day, not that I got out into it and not a sign of the sleety showers that were forecast.

    In my bit of East Yorkshire (a high bit), its just a few flurries with gusts over 35 kts......definitely feels like a chill factor at work. I expect it may set as temps fall tonight.

    Tony, I'm sure the shoppers in my local town would've gladly sent you theirs


    Pretty sure I was passed by a couple of brass monkeys crying their eyes out too!

    There is a bit here on the East coast and it is settling. +2 air temp, with the wind well below zero I'd say. Brrr. Time to light the fire!

    It started ten minutes ago and it's already a couple of centimetres deep
    The local kids are out gathering it off the cars for snowballs already

    Ours turned to soggy hail and has half melted The sky is clear and it looks like that was a bit of a damp squib really
    I've just let the cat in and she's not even bothered by what's left.

    Sleep well,
