All schools in Shetland and 34 schools in Aberdeenshire have been

So far Shetland has had a rather benign winter, a good northerly is always interesting up there though, experienced one myself one November many years ago - fantastic, plenty of spindrift and ice!

I remember walking back down the hill from Lerwick Observatory after a 'do' there. It was bitterly cold and there was a gale blowing. The wind was whipping the water off the Sandy Loch Reservoir and it was freezing before it hit me. That hurt! -- Mike C Clouston (MCC) Stithians, Cornwall 50°11'N 005°10'W 122 metres/400 feet ASL |

It's ice that is causing the problem because the Roads Contractor didn't perform on the trunk road network |
