Closed for snot!!!! Not many primaries would be open if they all did that.

 

You beat me to it!

[mikeprice]

I should probably edit the original

 

but too funny - I'll leave it!!

@mikeprice did claim his keyboard had a virus earlier this week...

[StevieM]

OK. NOW it’s snowing...and blowing a gale!

 

I’ve just got in from the shops. The living room heater is on full. I’m going to put on my Chewbacca onesie and not move for the rest of the day!

I’ll add that to the list of things in my life I’ll now never be able to unsee....

Well we had snow

more of those little bit if snow falling but not sticking

 

that was it

 

nearest weather station - according to Weather Underground - has been reporting a temperature of between -1 and +1 all day with a feels like temperature of several degrees lower due to wind

 

basically a pain in the neck

 

 

 

 

 

 

and - no I DO NOT OWN A ONESIE

 

and I am rather shocked that some people that I considered to be sensible and normal come on here and - not only does it turn out that they own one - but they admit it and even admit to wearing it!!!!!

We've been the same, a couple of small flurries today but the wind was biting, I reckon around -5 with wind chill. All the ground is dessicated due to days of this wind and no snow.

Went for a walk along the Ribble Link and Lancaster Canal this afternoon. Both were frozen with a very thick sheet of ice and walking into the wind was not fun at all!

 

 

[elsiegee40]

Wind chill here took it down to “feels like” -8

 

Whatever. Our daily walk was very brisk on the bits that weren’t as slippery as the Cresta Run.

 

I took our Volvo out for a battery-charging run and was surprised by how much snow was around. There’s more than I thought.

[mikeprice]

no snow - but the local weather stations are showing a slightly higher temperature - 2-3 degrees

 

but the 'feels like' is still negative

[Norphy]

and - no I DO NOT OWN A ONESIE

 

Methinks the man doth protest too much

...and - no I DO NOT OWN A ONESIE...

Could be borrowed, rented, or leased...

Suppose it could be worse - could be Lycra...

 

(are e-bikers allowed to wear Lycra?)

Well I'm not

 

Mrs mikeprice is VERY clear on the subject

 

 

 

and to be clear - for 'those people' - I also do not rent/lease/borrow or steal a onesie

 

especially not a Disney Princess one - before anyone starts

OK. Understood.

 

On topic: Snow's gone from here (was hardly any at all anyway) but also heard from the in-laws that it's almost completely gone in their part of Norfolk too.

 

[mikeprice]

Round here what snow there is has gone

 

although the canal still has large patches of ice where it is sheltered from the sun

which is weird when you see several ducks swimming around then one apparently standing on the water

[hardtailstar]

Lot of rain yesterday. Snow all gone now.

[StevieM]

Yesterday, I was sunning myself in the garden. Today, it’s snowing (just).

Same here (on both counts!) I thought the snow wouldn't make it this far down the country.

 

Edit: Snowing (heavier) with bigger flakes!

[sparkeh]

It came, it went, now glorious sunshine and not a cloud in the sky!

[mikeprice]

Very sunny here - no snow but then we are pretty much at sea level

 

but Yea Gods it is cold!!!

car says 3 degree

[Andrew_C]

Lovely and sunny here in the sarf... Cold,, but nice.

[mikeprice]

Still cold around here

 

Apparently it was snowing this morning out by Aintree race course

[MatthewL]

Nothing here in Northern Lincolnshire on the coast, boiling yesterday whilst I was out with a bit of a breeze, chillier today but nothing what so ever.

[stevejp]

A few flakes of snow just as I was cleaning out the scorebox at the cricket club ready for our first match on Saturday - I just hope it warms up a bit by then!
