A dusting isn't snow.
Yeah, have you tasted it? Might be icing sugar.
It looked like a mini blizzard for a short while here in North London. I'm WFH today so was going to take an early lunch and head out on the bike. Stopped snowing and it's barely settled anywhere
#disappointed
Windy here, what was a very very fine smattering of snow lasted about 14mins once the sun came out. It's 8C and beautiful sunshine again.. SarfCarst.

No, I sniffed up a roller £50 note. It gave me a headache.
Decent covering in the micro climate of NW Leicestershire today, couple of stuck cars but battled my way to lower ground and was welcomed into work like the hero that I am.

Me too on page 25 bikebouy. 😀
I can't decide if I just like looking at snow because it's novel and rare, or if it genuinely is lovely and interesting. But either way, I've spent a lot of today doing it.
Hoping for a snowy ride - turned into a wet, muddy and tiring afternoon instead
Not much left in SE
Ahh, same Facebook friends then 😆
We had a dusting in Fife. Some were more ecstatic than others to see its arrival

I love the look of deep snow, been a while since I've been able to have a good look at some though. It's ace when it smooths over all the square edges in the garden and no one walked in it yet.
Should be nice for a ride tomorrow morning, cold, crisp and frozen.
More snow overnight here - another 6-8 cm I guess. Temps due to start climbing though. Could be as high as 4C tomorrow
Just started in beautiful downtown Rochdale.
Place is looking better already.
We're missing out for a third year in a row *sigh*.
Typical. Mrs Rusty has decreed a 700 mile round trip from Carmarthen to Leeds and back this weekend to see the latest grandchild, timed to hit the M62 at rush hour.
Snow tyres - check
Warm clothing - check
Suicide pill - check
Slopes have opened here. Might take a wee ride up tonight.

Hand her the keys and tell her to enjoy her trip 😛
Flurries, but nothing settling in East Anglia.
Flurries in Edinburgh, cold though.
Looking quite nice here (edge of edinburgh). Not enough to matter but enough to make the gardens look pretty.
Possibly enough to **** up tomorrow's trailbuilding session, and then it's forecast to rain in the afternoon, weather you're a dick.
Reckon there'll be anywhere good for a family sledge over east tomorrow?
Some more fell overnight so it was a good incentive to head up the hill (and down again). My first decent snow ride of the winter!!

Comrie Croft had snow falling when we arrived, but a mere smattering of slushy ice up top. Disappointed.
Well, it took me 2 hours to get to work this morning due to someone not realising that if you pull straight out in front of a bus on snowy roads, it probably can't break in time to not hit you. On the way home now and will be interesting to see how much is left on the pentlands. More due tonight apparently.
Pictures would be nice.
Looking out of window in Colinton not a lot left on Pentlands, Allermuir mainly clear with a few bits and bobs.

I hope everyone was ok!
I was driven indoors from my Dog Hoose repairs and came back out to this...

Last few patches on the mountains this spring. It's been a poor winter.
snow forecast for Easter weekend here
smeg - am a bit sick of the winter
snow forecast for Easter weekend here
Where are you?
Looks like one of my winter tyres has a slow puncture so the normal tyres are going on this weekend... Inevitable blizzard incoming

Can't see the hills yet.
A fair covering of snow in Cannock this morning. Probably as much as we've had all winter. Sun is warm though (air isn't!) so it won't last long.
Get the ski's out scotroutes....

Still falling, I think this is the most snow so far this year. I'm thinking of putting the xc skis in the car but won't be able to try till about ten tonight and I suspect it will be gone by then.
Light dusting of snow on sw Sheffield and the peak last night. Blossom on the trees and fresh cut grass to make a weird scene...
Snow forecast here overnight down in Tasmania
I might be dusting off (literally) the fatbike!
Drove through what was nearly a blizzard between Okehampton and Exeter this afternoon! Sky was pretty black, and there were big wet flakes mixed in with the rain, along with the wind.
Could barely make out any of the surrounding countryside.
Once again, my first ever purchase of studded tyres (45NRTH Gravdals, £35 each from CTBM) back in January saves Southampton from the wintry weather! 😆
Horrible ride home from work yesterday in mixed hail sleet and snow. Got cold and wet and couldn't get warm again until about 9:30
No snow in Hove today 🙂
Cracking day here, I am not expecting any tonight, but you never know.
Snows 'here'* then..

It *is* getting colder. This morning at oab_towers.

That would explain the sub 3 degree warning beep as I drove through to Glasgow this morning.
Bring it on! 😀
Most definitely game on this week...
Gritters out tonight 🙂
Brutal cold at kids footy today and that was just Derbyshire. It's on its way...
Spotted a gritter last night - wasn't entirely sure fife council still had any as they didn't seem to use them last year.
Lovely sunny few days here, but northerly wind today was baltic!
So, this.

This mornings commute along the sheltered parts of the cycle path past Troon was fun, first ice since last winter.
Could really do with a good one this year
As an anecdote to black Friday we've just had a heavy snow shower in Glasgow, ground too wet for it to stay around though.
Also had a snow flurry on the commute home last night.
Pish.
As usual.

Just leaving work, snowing in Rochdale.
Place looks better already.
🙂
Snowing over Saddleworth (no massive surprise!) this evening.
About to head out in to the snowy danger zone that is belper. A good 1cm on the grass. I expect traffic mayhem...
Looks rubbish Scotroutes.
No gritters.
😐
Half an hour turned into a dodgy 55 minute extended slither.
Heavy in Rochdale now.
Cold here on the Sarf Coast and was drizzling, it's now clearing and it looks slippery as wet teflon out there.
Looks rubbish Scotroutes
SR earlier in the week: I'm planning a BAM Friday night.
Me: what's the snow forecast.... (we had yellow warning from the metoffice for up here).
Just as well I was busy this am 😀
Must admit I'm beginning to question the logic of living 3 miles off a 'main' road with singletrack access in the Scottish highlands! Not too much accumulating at present but it's white outside (and passed a car that had skidded into a ditch yesterday am).
I best be getting that new winter B+ rubber on to them wheels.
What can I say? I'm weak and the offer of a post-ride birthday pint or two was too much.Just as well I was busy this am
Now looking like Sunday night I think. Browsing VeloViewer for possible routes/locations.
Flake news.
I'd give you a free pass SR based purely on the snow and cold personally.
Except of course, it's the 25th... tick tock! I'm not rushing to offer to go out tonight instead neither... walking back to the car (down from the castle and over the bridge was decidedly skitey last night).
Suppose you could always build an igloo 😆

3 days of snow forecast here in Staffordshire. What a big pile of white shit. We have Christmas Ball tomorrow night which will end being very expensive if it gets cancelled.
Started in Burnley about an hour ago, pretty heavy, seems to be sticking.
🙂
Bit in chesterfield and sticking to cars and house roofs.
Snowing here in San Antonio.
White over in Belper. Looks like Buxton area has plenty. Eyes to Sunday now which seems a certainty for heavy snow. Crane on site Wednesday, which I really really need to happen....
Looking outside for the promised 6 inches and feeling the kind of disappoint a lot of women have felt.
Covering in Yeadon
Big flakes falling here in Stourbridge
Yey!
(Guaranteed plenty of snow this winter as took winter tyres off my car a couple of months ago)
