this is the myth, snow is not the only reason for winter tyres

in cooler temperatures they will perform much better than your pirelli p6000's and if there is any hint of ice they will off massively better grip

"Penny Tranter, of the BBC Weather Centre, said: "During the day on Sunday, the snow will move right across the rest of Scotland and all of northern England, with blizzards continuing.

Cool air from Scandinavia has caused this severe weather.

Ms Tranter added: "This is quite late in the winter season to be seeing snow of this magnitude." "


... and there you have it. we don't have enough snow regularly to warrant winter tyres. just have to get the old nordic skis out and pole my way to the shops
