Was snowing heavily when I got up 20 minutes ago - look like its been laying too (lack of people prints on the pavement gives it away). Wish it would carry on like that

No extra snow, but it's not melted overnight and the roads look very slippery this morning. 30 mile drive to college today. Ugh!

No more snow yet but what was there has frozen solid... 3" thick ice!

Add to that the tubes slowly failing (they were all working when I got up, now there are delays and suspensions on half my journey to work) and it means me and Mrs Dym are going to stay off and work from home again...

Shopping list:

New boots
Crampons

Not looking forward to driving today, roads were TERRIBLE yesterday night, and it is the same amount of snow on the roads but now the snow will be covered with Ice. Awesome!

Roads are a bit icy round here but the constant overnight rain has managed to get rid of pretty much most of the snow. Traffic was a lot easier with it and so my journey to work was almost back to normal

Hardly anything on the roads here, and not too slippy though was driving ultra-carefully. 2 of us have made it in so far, only another 120 or so to go but it's still early I guess.
