Snowing here in West Yorkshire, big fluffy flakes, due to snow all night.

Hate snow, hate the cold, hate the drizzly, grey weather we get in the South West while you're all taking pretty snow pics for instagram. Hate driving in the snow, and putting eleven hundred layers on the dc to head out the door. Bah humbug!

<chucks snowballs at the lot of you>

Just for balance the South generally gets the hotter Summers (note the word generally) hope that cheers you up a bit?

Solid covering of white outside here in North Staffs….I’ve got to go Aldi and get my baps out on the car park tomorrow for a routine mammogram 🥶🥶🥶!!!

It does actually! I'm not built for cold. More than 5 minutes and my hands and feet go numb and my joints seize up.

Stopped in Warrington but it wasn't actually due to start until midnight, hopefully it's just letting the rain/sleet dry up a bit to form a better base for the snow!

Family got off the M6 they've found a hotel. Thank god.

I have to say, please can you keep it? I'm in Essex and hate snow. So far none here and I am hoping it stays that way. 😁

Me too. Alas forecast says for Birmingham it’s due to snow between 9am and 11am. 😭 Regretting that I didn’t bring my snow boots up here with me, I really didn’t think it would snow.

ilovesushi · 18/11/2024 22:46

I am jealous! We just have rain here.

ilovesushi · 18/11/2024 22:47

@PyreneanAubrie Beautiful! She looks like an arctic fox.

Port1aCastis · 18/11/2024 22:48

Raining here in Cornwall no snow forecast just rain rain rain all week

GiddyRobin · 18/11/2024 22:51

For anyone who can, and is a bit weird like me - listen to The Shipping Forecast when it comes on, if you're awake. It's bloody lovely and when the weather is like this, so exciting.

DementedPanda · 18/11/2024 22:52

I wonder if it's going to make its way up to the north east. It's freezing out there, the gritters have been out but the skies are clear

MrsCarson · 18/11/2024 22:55

Our rain stopped and the snow has started, it's freezing out. I'm hoping it doesn't stick for long.
Im in Wales, near Snowdonia national park.

JawsCushion · 18/11/2024 22:59

It is raining now and it sounds quite heavy.

Nanny31 · 18/11/2024 23:00

Sheffield. Roads covered!!! Looks like a lie in tomorrow morning!

That takes me back to the 1970s when I was a tiny child, and my parents used to listen to that on Radio 2. That lovely music... 🎵

Awwww, happy memories. ⚓🛳

If you have Spotify, there's a whole channel filled with it! Sometimes I just put it on and daydream. 🥰 Was a huge fixture of my childhood too, so soothing all tucked up in bed with the radio on in the next room.

EarthlingHere · 18/11/2024 23:25

So big irony is hitting us hard tonight. We fly to Lapland in the morning where there’s currently and devastatingly no snow (it’s 12 degrees warmer in Lapland than last year- global warming) but it is going to be snowing heavy at home! You just couldn’t write it😂

Ooh i'm not far from you, i'm going to go out and check before I go to bed!

HappyNewYear2027 · 18/11/2024 23:32

I can't believe how heavy it is! Probably got about 7cm already!
It's like a blizzard outside

Settled in Nottinghamshire, I live in a hilly area and so glad I’m not at work tomorrow!
