None at all, although according to the local TV news you would think we were under 6ft of it! Such nonsense :lol: :roll:

Dry, -4ºC, not a hint of snow and no wind to blow any in.

I predict that with the first snowflake we will shut everything down. :roll:

The snow started "on time" around 7:00 this evening but hasn't been quite as heavy as forecast. Just now, we've probably got about 1-2 cms, but it is still falling as fine snow and its breezy, so I bet I'll find there's been a drift in our back alleyway tomorrow morning. :D

The local High School is closed tomorrow, but not the local primary schools (yet). I think the rationale for that is a greater proportion of secondary pupils travel in from outlying areas, and I gather Dorset County Council have suspended all community transport for tomorrow including school services.

No snow here, but very high winds and a shed load of rain forecast for tonight.

We let out an inch and a half out of the pool this morning and it's already almost back to the same level :shock:

Had a few snow flakes during the night. Pavements are white but roads are clear where the traffic is.
Cold wind. Lots of blue sky now the sun is out.

Same as Cruiser. A dusting of snow, no more.

We did get an inch overnight, but nothing to really panic about!
