Is it going to snow? 2012 - 2013 snow thread

[Doom 10]

Derek Dooley way is like an ice rink. Avoid if at all possible.

 

I guess we'll be told it's the wrong type of snow and the grit doesn't work on it.

 

By the way, my comments are no reflection in the gritters themselves, those guys seem to work incredibly hard, but you do have to wonder if they've been hung out to dry a little bit by those who organize the gritting procedure.

 

Regards

I have had to abandon my car having spent 2 hours trying to get out of SW sheffield. I got stuck on a hill. My boss, however, does not believe me. I work in a city where there is no snow. I have to send her a photo but none of mine do the situation justice. Anyone got any?

Tell her to google it!

Anyone thinking of going out towards Labybower my advice would be don't bother.

This is the junction of the A57 and RVR about an hour ago. The whole of RVR is just as bad.

Ice rinks do not have snow on them. So no the roads are not like an ice rink.
