Met Office have now issued a warning for Heavy Snow in Northern Scotland. The cold spell is nailed on now...Northern Ireland should also get some action probably Thursday/ Friday...
Notts Snow will probably be limited to the Higher ground.
Southern Softies....Put your Shorts back on...Probs won't reach that far.

I checked North Wales just a minute ago on line. Its supposed to be mostly raining for next 4 days, with some serious brrrrrrr....... on Tuesday night. They didn't say what happens after that. They should guess by tomorrow and put it up.
I didn't check Mid and South Wales.

Freezing here, too. Nature has kicked me into eating more than I need to eat; for the winter. Going to make egg and crispy bacon sandwich now. Nothing is better than eating egg n' bacon sandwich with a cup of tea while sitting in your warm house, and talking cr@p on internet.

It might sound a bit nuts but I am hoping for some proper snow again this year. I've got proper CX tyres for the bike now (full treaded jobbies) which I was able to use for a week last year and they were some of the best bike rides I've done.
I was pretty much the fastest thing on the roads and in a couple of cases the ONLY thing moving on the roads.
I've not bothered with Ice Spikers as I've concluded that if the roads need Ice tyres the motorised stuff is going to be way more dangerous than the road itself, and I'll stay in bed thankyouverymuch

My God. That has rung warning bells for me.
