Well I got up looked out the window at 5.30, thought sod that and I'm sat at home with a nice warm coffee in hand.

It's not worth the agro today trying to do anything that's been planned.
Is that cos of rain or snow?

No snow here but dear oh me the last 24 hours it has shat it down relentlessly. Supposed to stop at 9am but sites going to be a misery this morning

Snow.

Had a dollap of it yesterday morning. It was raining yesterday evening and looking like it'd be OK for this morning but had another dollap over night.

Completely snowed in here unless I dig us out and that won't be happening for a few days, if at all. Track is 1/4 mile long to the road.

Most pics were taken yesterday, had a few more inches on top of that overnight.
If the forecast is correct we won't see anymore than -1 until Sunday, so maybe in for a long haul. Unless someone gets seriously ill it's a non issue, get snowed in at least once a Winter and there was plenty of warning, although I have a dentists app on Thu.

Tiring walking the dog though, but it doesn't bother him. Was creased up laughing as he completely vanished out of sight trying to get across a drift covered ditch :ROFLMAO:

Had to be rescued and left the soft roaders there, won't be getting them back for a while as they're a fair way from the road.

Wash out this morning with so many local roads flooded. Went to site for a meeting at 3pm. No need to fight the chaos on the roads that was first thing.

A bit of light freeze here around zero-ish to put a soft crust on the snow, to make it just a little bit harder for us all to try and walk through.
Currently stuck in low cloud having a coffee watching the Kestrel and other smaller birds get their breakfast in the gloom. Wondering how long owls can go without food....

Had another dump of the white stuff 🙄
the lightest of dusting in places here .... hell of a frost though .... started the car at 7.15 to clear it off for a 7.30 departure for town - take the kids to school.
Ground is frozen very solid and all the driveways are completely white
