Another couple of centimetres over night, but it has drifted really badly now the road outside is almost at waist level and yes I am trapped! Had a couple of heavy snow showers this morning.

[Guest Viking141]

Another couple of inches overnight. There is now a foot of level lying snow in Lerwick (30cms)

A couple of hefty showers this am and a very heavy one at the moment putting down another cm or two. Wind is blowing the snow and making the road conditions extremely difficult. Hard to see the schools etc being open tomorrow if this keeps up.

There's a few flakes falling at the moment but I don't think there will be enough for a snowman

[Shiny_Bottom_1]

Well a couple of 'reports' as such.

Woke up this morning at 08.30 in suffolk (between Colchester and Ipswich). A nice surprise to see a light dusting on the ground (not really measurable).

Also, got back home in Derby about 13.30, and looks like the was a possability of a rogue shower at some point last night/this morning (one shaded part of the garden has some very patchy dusting).

Not much, but something all the same.

Well i make it 6 consecutive days Kincorth. Similar conditions to yesterday - prolonged periods of sunshine with occasional snow showers. That might just about do it for this cold snap but the memories of the past week will never be forgotten.
