Snow

[Barrykearley]

It’s been booting it down all day - and it’s still coming.

feeling somewhat festive - here’s the front drive - couldn’t get the fiat up to the house

No such luck down here in Devon  - just wet. My inner child will have to wait a bit longer.

Where I am, there was a bit of snow mixed with the rain/sleet but not really any lasting beyond contact with the ground. My mate was 30-40 miles away and he and the kids were making snowmen and snow angels. I'm not upset at there not being snow on the roads around here.

no snow in Colorado, well only a little bit since October.  Just bought snow tires though...

Some fans are nuts and attend these games. I'd rather watch the entertainment in the comfort of home. Today in Buffalo

 

   

 

[100th_Idiot]

Only a little here.

I'm at work, watching the snow turn the streets white. Traffic has almost come to a halt, delays 3 times longer than usual. I'm sure the ride home with the Esprit will be just fine.

I watched some of that game, incredible!  

Not like the pansy 'football' players here in the UK that's won't play in a bit of sleet.

Taken from my window yesterday. Great Jeep weather

I'm glad I put the winter tyres on the Impreza last week, but it's just raining here at the moment, very little snow.

[Giniw]

Nothing here ...

[Advantage]

Not a single flake. 

[Chillidoggy]

Bright sunshine here, never saw a single flake of snow.

[Barrykearley]

Still bloody loads of it here.

We have had thick snow since last Friday, now frozen and of course with cutbacks the pavements have not been cleared, ok for us younger folk's but our village has a high percentage of elderly people. Myself excluded of course.

 

[Barrykearley]

Every bloody big 4wheel drive BMW and Audi are being driven by lunatics round here - stuck and owners digging them out of ditches.

the lil old Fiat 500 on the other hand has been a scream and has simply skipped though the snow and ice.

this mornings view from the front door. Now safely back on the sofa contemplating fitting nice red engine mounts and readying an engine for the lift

 

[Sparky]

You gonna powdercoat the windscreen, Bazza?

[CHANGES]

Yep, big dump of snow in west midlands.. most we have had for a few years..  every one stuck on the slight slope into our estate , for some reason its always bad on this road and lasts.... bottom of the road has become a car park...  But I must say the RRS is just unreal.   Its the first time I have used one in the snow, It has got 295 boots on all round so I expected it to be crap.. How wrong was I.   Its a truly amazing bit of kit in these conditions , you can actually accelerate quite quick regardless.. Down side is,  it stops you having a play, no matter how hard I try to drift it around islands the electrics cut in and straighten you up..   Which is probably why Barry  said BMW and Audi in the ditches by him..     Saying that I am sure someone could bin it if they tried hard enough..    as stopping can still be a bit iffy.  

I must congratulate JLR for such a wonderful all rounder in the RRS

Positively balmy. (Haven't left yet) But no, it's just that the civilised parts of the UK haven't really been troubled by such snowy annoyances yet.

[Barrykearley]

Oh dear - another speed awareness course beckons ?

[andydclements]

I thought they'd seen sense and had a non-standard letter, involving "...but since this is suppose to reduce the likelihood of attendees to travel at excess speed it's pointless you going Mr Betts..."

Top tip,  windscreen iced up, pull the sun visors down to 45 degrees then full heater, you will be surprised at the difference.

Yup, that's what I think when I think of snow !!!
