Default Still snowed in in Dundee

Tried to dig my own car out of the snow in Dundee today. Gave up. I
estimate about 90% of cars in Dundee are still stuck in side roads. Only
a limited bus service on priority routes. All schools still closed.

Also snow brought down a tree on top of a care home in Brought Ferry.

Spectacular footage of the snow lightning - the lightning was striking
the wind-turbines at the Michelin tyre factory - see

Still over 30 cm of snow, -5.5 last night, and nothing moving here.

For descriptions of the chaos the online Dundee Courier (that most
esteemed organ) is full of tales of everyday folk getting stuck in their
cars.

I have a collection of snow photographs towards the end of my album at:

I'm told by others it works.
