We didn't get much either, a tiny dusting that lasted less than a day in the more northern parts of Sussex but most places got nothing. Certainly not like the midlands!

Tiny dusting on Mid-Sussex at 7am but mostly gone now, sun coming out.

Wonder how many years we have to wait until we get another like 2010 (I think), when we had 13 inches in Sussex. Ellie has never seen more than about 2cm!

By heavy they mean 1/2 inch which will be enough to panic buy bread and milk and grind the country to a halt lol

I really disappointed by BBC Weather forecast. Checked the web site on Friday and there was no snow predicted until this coming Friday. Monday, Tuesday supposed to be cold but sunny. Any way I'm going to take a trip to Leeds Royal Armouries Museum this Saturday. Nice test for a Foz. 400+ miles return.

Still took the scoob to work just in case AWD was needed!

We've got loads of snow here in Borough Green! Got to go on a rescue mission soon to collect my wife from the station in Sevenoaks, since all the trains on our line are cancelled.

Drove from Hastings to Leicester today via M23/M25/M1, roads were dry from Reigate to J18 of the M1, brief white out and then clear again to J21 where I got to Leicester. The delivery mileage A Class is looking a little worse for wear, I'm sure it's fine under the layer of salt. Wonder what the journey back will be like tomorrow.

Good luck with that mate...

It wasn't too bad, left Leicester at 1:30, M1 was shut southbound so cut across the M69 and A46 towards the M40, brief panic moment when I hit a blizzard on the A46 and dropped to a single lane 10mph Crawl, 10 minutes later I was on a dry M40 in lovely sunshine, couple more flurries on the M25 and straight down the A21, took about 4 hours with a fuel and coffee stop.

According to the BBC you are all stuck in 20 ft snow drifts, your homes are freezing as the gas has run out and your only hope is the British army!!

Lol aĺl week my kids have been waking up expecting school to be closed everyday, have been in everyday including today. Had a slight dusting over this week, nothing more and heating works fine..

Total media hype with a few exceptions mainly in scotland who are used to it and made of tougher stuff and just get on with it.

Sour grapes as ive not had a snow day...... probably. 😁

It has been a bit of a lottery as to where the snow has fallen. We still have about 3 inches on the ground, although not much significant since Wednesday. One school in our village has been closed since Tuesday, the other open all week!

Give the forecasters a break, it's a tough job being accurate to the postcode level... The media though, they're a bunch of sensationalist numpties (nothing new there)!

You'll need some bloody rubber on those wheels before you brave the snow, Scotty.

I very smugly overtook everyone one the A217 in the snow this evening.

There's a few thousand nutters in Hastings about to start the half marathon, at least it's forced the council to fix all the pot holes along the route.
