Doesn't seem to anyone posting from the North-West of England. I'm about
12 miles from Blackburn, & it's been a bright sunny day, about 46F (at
a guess) with a cool northerly breeze. I was most surprised to see the
pictures of snow in the SE, on BBC News.

Hi Geoff,
not much to post about here on the Wirral over the last week or so as
there has been no lying snow and only light snow/sleet showers
throughout this current cold spell,
best regards,
Alan

Was there a degree of exaggeration there in the reporting? I'll leave it for
the guys from Kent to comment.
It's just that watching them dig out a Land Rover from the snow of no great
depth was slightly unbelievable. (Speaking as an owner previously).

I did think it was a little OTT, especially if they could switch the
vehicle into 4-wheel drive....
