Vanessa; Big deal! We've had three days of snow and about ten of frost this winter...and the rain we had yesterday froze overnight...so guess who won't be going out today?

A thin blanket of snow fell from about 6.30am, but is expected to quickly melt away. Sky News weather presenter Isobel Lang said: "This is the first real snowfall across London this winter, and it?s happening right in the middle of the morning rush hour which could cause some disruption. "However it won?t be around for long, and will melt quickly in the sunshine." Wales, the Midlands, northern England and the rest of South West England will have a cold day with the risk of ice. Ireland and Scotland are also experiencing a cold start with ice first thing and some snow showers across northern and eastern Scotland. On Thursday the snow risk is likely to extend south into the Lake District and Pennine areas bringing the risk of disruption across higher routes during the morning before it turns back to rain and continues to spread southeast across the rest of England and Wales. This weekend ? two of the biggest shopping days of the year ? will be crisp and dry. from Vanessa The Google Girl. my skype name is rainbowstar123 ----- No virus found in this message.
