All clear in York.
Sunny, slighty breeze (chilly with that wind chill) but out of the wind its actually quite warm.
Not a cloud in site, clear blue skies.
Snow.... not sure if i want it or not.
:?
Wot's snow?
Brighton's famous for white powder but I've never heard of snow! :P
We've got about 4inches snow here.Took 2 hours to do the 20 mile commute and passed 5 cars well off the road( all 4x4s!) :twisted:
All 4x4 drivers up here suddenly think there machine is indestructible and can do anything- problem usually is that the person behind the wheel can't.
Rant over
Hope I can get the heating to work soon- its 6C in the shop right now

Its STILL bright clear skies, not one cloud around, the skie is a deep deep blue. Get out of that wind and it would pass for late spring.

just stopped here ... any excuse to go to the pub and not go to lectures I dont know students :roll: :wink:
Bright sunshine now here and the earlier stuff has largely melted but more is forecast. I have to go over to Telford later on, don't fancy the A5 in the snow!
Few tiny flurries this morning here, nothing since, Right on the border here of where they've said snow's going to hit so hopefully might get away with it.
Still snowing....anyone for a snowball fight? :D

Pretty grim up here in whitby today. Its been the worst weather i've every worked in in the past 5 years. Got damed scary at one point up on the cliff top while posting my letters. A blizzard blew in from the sea, thunder and lighing all around me, thought my numbers were up when i saw a flash of lighting whizz past me as i was blown down the street. The thunder was that loud i actually thought one of the buildings was been blown down. Got my fingers crossed for a better day tomorrow.

walked home from work this afternoon and got caught in snow/hailstorm!! coat/bag/pockets full of kind of soggy hailstones. glad not on bike - hope no one had any nasty experiences with the white stuff...

Lol...........brings back memories. We had the bike booked in at JHS Racing in Bristol in Feb last year for it's 30,000 mile service. Left home and it was very cold but dry. Got near Cirencester and ran into snow. We spent 2 hours parked up at an island waiting for the roads to clear enough to be able to carry on. Was amusing watching all the cage drivers slipping and sliding, although we felt sorry for the poor guy who hit a lamp post.
