The A6 between Bakewell and Buxton was closed for a while earlier this
morning
by a fallen tree. It has certainly been a very gusty morning.

Heavy snow is forecast for tomorrow.

Still no warnings for anything in this area.


Perhaps they think you are used to it Norman!
That is what I was patronisingly told a year ago when I enquired about the
lack of fog warnings on Dartmoor when they will happily warn of 200 metre
vis. fog lower down.
Snow warnings are often under-played up here too, the road out of Princetown
rises almost to 500 metres and can get quite tricky sometimes.
Hail can also be a big hazard anywhere in the SW but do they issue warnings
for ice?

It will be breezy and cold, some will get snow, others wont. Just a usual winter scenario, and it will get milder again one day and we will be talking about other stuff no doubt.

Been nippy in E Europe and E USA too hasn't it?

Pity about the giant redwood demise in the US this week too.
