I looove an excuse to stay home - snow day! ❄️👏🥳
Hot chocolate, movies and a cozy blanket!!! 😄

We're same here in Vancouver, though. Don't get a lot of snow and when we do it's usually wet, so roads turn to ice fast. Most people just have 'all seasons" tires on their vehicles which are awful on slick roads. Pair that with inexperience driving in it and it's a disaster.

My son was in Vancouver for a year and this time last year there was really heavy snow..he hadxa snow day off from the office.
It really is a beautiful city..I absolutely loved it there. X

Snowing and settling in South Yorkshire.

Weather app has been forecasting between 153-280mm of snow in 24 hours with 230mm being the most often quoted depth! That’s quite a lot.

Only rain here in South Wales!

StiffyByngsDogBartholomew · 18/11/2024 21:33

God I hope it's not going to snow in the south east. My commute is 30 miles at 5am cross country and I deffo don't want to do that in snow.

DanceMumTaxi · 18/11/2024 21:35

Snowing in my part of Lancashire, and it’s setting now. I’ve got a really important day at work tomorrow and I hate driving in snow. It takes 45/50 minutes anyway so dreading the morning. I absolutely hate snow!

MEinMelia · 18/11/2024 21:40

It’s been snowing on the coast north of Merseyside for about 30 mins! ❄️

BitzerMalonie · 18/11/2024 21:41

You're way outside the warning area (doesn't go further south than Birmingham / Peterborough) and I'd be surprised if there was any snow in the forecast for the SE at all

MEinMelia · 18/11/2024 21:42

It’s such a rare event here, usually only happens when the rest of the country is completely white.

Theunamedcat · 18/11/2024 21:44

I love snow provided I don't have to leave the house 😂

VegTrug · 18/11/2024 21:46

North Yorkshire very close to border with West Yorkshire and only a small flurry here. DD is gutted

SabreIsMyFave · 18/11/2024 21:47

YAY @BitzerMalonie and @Ilovetolurk 😃

Turning to sleet here now! (From rain!) 😄

I remember one February day in 1995. Rained all morning, sleet by midday, snowing briskly and settling by 2pm. Three hours later and the centre of Leeds was at a standstill. Thank goodness I wasn't at work. Neither was the old man as he was recently retired but he still managed to get all arsey about the weather😫.

Birmingham 2002ish.
Got cold, snow warnings etc, council sent the gritters out at 10am.
Rained all afternoon and washed the grit away, then got freezing at about 4pm and gridlocked the city.
People were sleeping in their offices and abandoning cars, it was like some third world country. Or Birmingham normally.

And the last two Januaries we had a severe snow storm. I was caught for over 4 hours trying to get home on a usual 30 minute drive.

I can see snow on Grouse Mtn right now. 😍
Glad you had a chance to visit us. 😄

Thank you!! The first picture of snow in a snow thread... and I'm unbelievably pleased it was of a fuzzbutt too 😺

Excuse my manners - s/he's beautiful 😍

I'm coming to West Yorkshire later in the week. What is the forecast please? I love snow as does my dog.

Me too! And it's full winter sun towards the end of the week!

FoxRedPuppy · 18/11/2024 22:05

Snow dog

He actually loves the snow, despite his face!

iamme21 · 18/11/2024 22:06

Snowing in north Liverpool, and we never get snow as we are too close to the coast!
