My wife was in Exeter in February 1978 - snowed in for nearly a fortnight.

Similar conditions today inasmuch as we are in a true battleground scenario, I would not be wholly surprised if the rain / thaw following is less pronounced than forecast, I say this as weather from the channel always seems reluctant to rise up off the channel and over the land at this time of year. It appears to sheer along the coast if it can.In which case stays colder and edges further East. If we do get rain and ice there a whole new set of problems with roofs collapsing, black ice and power lines collapsing so lets hope that doesn't happen.

Either way stay safe!

I remember 1978 well i was 9 years old...that was the year that made my love for snow. I remember digging the snow from our back kitchen door leading into the garden 8 feet incredible... absolutely loved it at the time.

Really looking forward to the snow it's been a longtime...especially for Exeter and of course the whole of the SW. ?
