Been a nice sunny morning, clouded over a bit towards lunchtime. Just looked out the window and I can scarcely see Greggs for the snow
Luckily it doesn't seem to be sticking, just making the roads nice and slushy and slippery. First police siren just gone by...

Gale-force winds

Honestly, I swear to God... I'm fvcking sick of it!
Yours, pissed-off,

Absolutely chucking it down and the temperature is somewhere in the minus centigrade. 20 odd km down the road it was snow and thunder yet at 7am it was perfectly fine, just a bit chilly. We're doomed!

Pah, a few gusts of wind and some rain.
When I were a lad it wasn't windy until all the fences are down.
