    Same here. The snow is travelling on the M4.

        I'm going to buy some of those clip on crampons if I see them in the shops, which no doubt I will not see, as my trainers appear to be Teflon coated. Either that or carry an old pair of socks, which I hear are effective when worn over the shoes.

          Actually, they are described as slip-on crampons

            Google Earth (desktop) has a neat feature that allows animation frames to be overlaid. Here's the radar agglomeration since 4 a.m. this morning.

                  Snowing lots here.

                    They have been saying "It will snow at the weekend" in the weather forecast on the local radio here since the first week in October. So:

                    Just as well otherwise they'd have been predicting it all through next summer, too.

                    Personally, I predict there will be a total eclipse of the sun.

                      Quite a bit of snow coming down here now in SW London.
