JUst a very light dusting here, enough to cover the roads but not the grass.
From the look of the radar, it's skirting to the north of here as it dies
out moving west. If we get any more it's unlikely to amount to much.
Still... first lying snow here in more than 5 years, and only the second
instance this century. Expect it will be washed away later as the snow turns
to rain.

Hi Jim:
Listening to Radio Solent you think we had reached the end of the
world, but then the majority of their listeners are Hants and that
area. I gather the IOW has had a bit in Ryde- more I bet on the hill
tops.

Off to work but sneeking in at the back to avoid being lumbered with
the work of those who made no attempt to go to work through the
massive drifts
