Believe me- he knows! He currently can't get out of his street and his mum has had to park the car at the bottom of the road and walk!

You did ask...

Aw bless, hope he is ok

[Jayfromcardiff]

Woulda thought now, why is there a hole over part of Glouc on the rain today radar?

[Nights King]

LOL... if flirting with people I don't know on here was a slappable offence I think I would be black and blue!

Anyway everyone knows that I am unlikely to be really a female, I am probably about 32 stone and a 63 year old man called Bob to boot!

You have ruined that image I had in my head.

Luckily she doesnt look at the weather she only just puts up with my madness haha. When i start going weather crazy she plays call of duty on my xbox although she does need some practice

To keep it weather related it is still snowing and temperature is 0c around 5/6cm at present.

On Haldon Hill definitely, possibly other places as well

[lian]

Hooray! Just started here now, lots of small flakes though blowing around but happy days.

[Bristawl Si]

Well, it's now chucking it down. For those of you that know the M4/M5 interchange where the RAC traffic tower is - i'm about 2 miles from there and from the back garden can normally see its lights clearly. Not now! It's almost disappeared from sight, due to the intensity of snow falling.

Getting a real and unexpected top-up here.

[MP-R]

Snow is finally settling here and quite quickly too. Thank heavens, I was getting worried and it's coming down fast! :lol: Temp 0.0C
