the snow is here:(

[SamanthaUK]

Still awaiting the snow in North Yorkshire..
Although we were hit by freezing temperatures, Hailstones and Sleet yesterday

Think it's going to be a long, cold winter for us all..

 

[Damnation]

Also snowing in Durham, Hexham, Carlisle and Dumfries

REALLY?!!! I se no snow

I am near Carlisle and Hexham and I see no snow?!! Its probibily melted, I'v only just dragged myself out of bed

 

[Chestnutmare]

I'm in colchester, essex and it's getting a lot colder (8 degrees daytime), and 1 at night. Reckon it won't be long until the snow is here too. Gunna stock up on salt and bits so can at least handwalk!

Me too, it is really nippy all of a sudden isn't it!
I am double rugging the past couple of days....

Need to sell my car before the snow comes

 

[HBrae2]

Have a look at the met office weather warnings. Looks like we are all going to be doing the 'Ice Road Trucker' thing again tomorrow. I'm inverurie and sky looking very dodgeeee

Nooooo!!!! I like to remain in denial as long as possible
Just about to go and hike round a muddy field trying to find a lost shoe so it can at least stay off until I finish!!!

 

[noodle_]

its raining here!!! (cheshire)!


due to rain for another week

 

[Nic]

Decent snow fall in Lanarkshire too. It was the 6th of December last year that we got snowed in.

 

[Alexart]

I'm looking out the window at the Lakes and it's white - not white here though as I'm too near the sea, but can see the scottish mountains across the Solway and they're white too! I don't mind snow as long as it doesn't get below -10 as that's when all the pipes freeze!

 

[Fransurrey]

I love the look of snow, but really it has to lay off until at least late Jan. Winter with a broken arm is bad enough - I really can't lug large feeds and haybales around!!

[RayJaguarStorm]

4 inches up here on the north coast!

where are you?? haha

I want it to snow soooo badly! Not snowing in alnwick yet

 

[teamsarazara]

Horses snug in stables, haynets, feeds made incase i cant get to yard, extremely bad forecasted for tonight!

 

[LeneHorse]

A dusting in East Kilbride this morning but it had frozen and turned into black ice which was nice More on the way overnight - will I get up to the yard tomorrow morning??? I don't want any more accidents - please!

 

[orionstar]

We had 20 minutes of good big flaked snow this morning but it did'nt lie, sunshine this afternoon so I went to put the rugs on the yearlings for the first time and they were brilliant, until Orion spotted Tilly in her new rug and tried to run backwards as the scary monster! Off to get the snow tyres fitted tomorrow.

 

[Ealana]

sorry but i love the snow

and for you lot that think it's gonna be a long hard winter - this time last year we were under a foot of snow just be grateful it hasn't been here earlier

 

[mulledwhine]

^^^ this, this time last year, school was closed, Christmas Market had been cancelled , and it was still coming down with no signs of stopping!!!!!

 

[Chestnutmare]

Think we should have some pretty snowy piccies from those that have it already...

I love the snow but this country falls apart at the sight of a single flake.. and getting to my boy would be a disaster too thank goodness for a brilliant YO that will be able to do him should I not get there, to easy my mind at least.

 

[Firewell]

I love living in the south east *smug*. No snow here! It's pretty mild here although it is a bit Rainey! Think there is a low of 2 degrees tonight and a high of 10 tomorrow... Tough.

 

[sandi_84]

We had just over an inch lying before I left the yard tonight. Poor horsies had on ice skates so had to pop the compacted stuff out with a bit of lukewarm water and a hoof pick, leave them in stables till they dried out and then spread a barrier cream thing inside to help keep the snow from sticking. Poor boys and girls
How are all your horses getting on with the snow if you've had it yet?

 

[blood_magik]

I've persuaded my dad to go do the horse tomorrow
he'll be able to get there if the snow is really bad and I'm working at silly o' clock

 

[teamsarazara]

Shall take a photo tomorow when its light, flash on camera being a bit dodgy!

[Miss L Toe]

hopefully it will wait until I get home

North Ayrshire here, reporting the moor road unusable due to snow [not forecast but very obvious]

North Ayrshire here, reporting the moor road unusable due to snow [not forecast but very obvious]

Oh my goodness Ayrshire has snow and there's still none in my part of rural Aberdeenshire (just a hard frost) - I'm from Ayrshire but live up here now and normally I've got 6 feet of snow and my parents in Ayrshire have a cm! Something odd going on but I'm not complaning

 

[blood_magik]

are you talking about the m77?
it had better be passable because my Dads in east Ayrshire and its his turn to do the horse

 

[Gwennies]

We had a little bit of snow over night. I used to love the stuff, but after last winter I absolutely hate it!

 

[debsg]

I'm in East Kent, mine are out 24/7 and only just into LW rugs. And that's only because it peed down for a few days! Temps have dropped this morning though
It can snow as much as it likes after the 10th, when I have to drive to Birmingham to pick my daughter up from Uni. Journey up the M1/M6 is a b*tch at the best of times, without snow!

err no,it is unclassified road, in bad weather, only used by people who are lost

 

[Vindaloo]

Oh no! PLEASE don't let it snow too badly this year. I fly into the UK on the 16th (weather permitting) and am off to Olympia the next day.

Last year, I landed at heathrow, got in the car and got as far as detling. Couldn't get up the hill to my parents and had to take a room in a hotel just off the M20 for the night or freeze in the car!

We were supposed to go to Olympia but all the trains had stopped. I CAN'T miss it this year, I've got a horse to buy presents for... and a few bits and bobs for me too.

 

[mulledwhine]

Well if you watch the weather today it gives sunshine for us in Lincoln.

Already had 2 snow showers ( did not settle) and the sky looks as if we could be in for some more!!!

Deffianly not sunshine as they keep telling me
