Re: Snow !
I do feel very sorry for those who got caught out on the roads but everyone should have known the snow was coming and at least been carrying some emergency kit like warm clothes, snacks, drinks etc. to see them through a good few hours if the worst happened. I've been hearing the usual complaints from a few motorists about the lack of assistance but the emergency services have been citing access problems due to blocked roads, abandoned vehicles, obstructed hard shoulders etc. As usual, others have reported crazy driving, speeding etc. by those who just won't slow down for anyone or anything. Madness! The truth is there are always going to be major problems on our roads when weather like this strikes and the best way to mitigate its effects is for drivers to use some common sense and avoid non-essential journeys and/or causing obstructions wherever possible.

Re: Snow !
I'm going to Leeds tomorrow - customer just off the M1 / J46...I'm 200 miles away down south...
What's the weather / roads like up there now?
I see that Church Fenton (12 miles away) have reported 6 inches of snow up there!

Re: Snow !
They knew the snow was coming yet most roads were not gritted/salted which was terrible getting home last night.

Re: Snow !
Started as snow here yesterday but quickly turned to rain, not unusual by the sea. Still pretty cold though.

Re: Snow !
Wonder if I'll see the same as I did last year. Workmen at Lewisham Station on the tracks pouring water on the points in sub zero temperatures.
