  1. It wont be all that good, people are bigging this event up far too much.

    With all this rain it wont feel like we had an event when we wake up in the morning..

    Only thing we can hope for is for it to freeze over tonight but as it will be raining that wont happen, im going for heavy snow and alot of it, but it wont stick, maybe grass and roads but nothing else.

  2. In my opinion it's more sensible for the councils to do blanket closures simply because they know how their local roads are because they will have received reports. When it is left to the schools decision, headteachers aren't really able to comment on the roads and how safe it is. Although thursday on Solihull made a blanket closure.

    Last night I was expecting it to be a heavy rain event tonight. I'm having more hope today but i'm not sure how optimistic to be.

    Very true.

    Yeh I expected heavy rain.

  3. Mist has suddenly lifted now.

    Wonder if Birmingham will do a blanket closure of all schools again IF the snow is bad, they got stick for it last time and didnt do it for when they should of the second time! I dont agree with blanket closures, let headteachers decide, especially a place the size of Birmingham!

    Anyway, back on topic..
