Can't you just tell the media have the hype machines stoked up and ready to
go. My local news (Midlands BBC) have special reports, including how to
sledge properly and safely, reports on a £750,000 special snow plough that
can clear snow at 50mph off the Birmingham airport runways and so on...

I am a snow lover and can't wait for a good covering so I can get the camera
out and take some images of our local area but I am really getting fed up
with the poor over hyped reporting that our news media like to feed us, you
would think there is no other news to talk about the way they are going.

[WR], slight snow showers, 0C, small amounts of lying snow.
