I almost didn't get home from Liverpool last night, the A69 from Corbridge towards Newcastle was treacherous and I had to make a few "dashes" up some hills to ensure I got to the top
Was supposed to be in Mansfield today but the roads in the village are closed, no public transport and it's blizzard like at the minute so I'm watching tv.
Wor lass works in Longbenton, only 9 mile door to door, took her nearly an hour this morning, estate roads are crap and the A1 at 7 this morning was only moving at 25mph, must have snowed heavy after she went out as the drive where her car was now has another inch covering it.
My commute to work was a little easier if a little chilly, as the heating had not come on

Yup the south west, Wales and up into the midlands are going to get Storm Emma hitting the cold air and a lot of snow.

I can't see any golf being played on my course in Stockport any time soon. Will be next week at the earliest before any course in the area is open.

Road was covered in Havering when I left my house at 5
My mate has just asked me to work his late shift for him as his trains are having issues so I’m here until 20:30 tonight
Least travel should be better than at 13:30 this afternoon

I was in the local town yesterday (7 miles from home) which had a slight ten minute flurry which quickly melted. As I got to the outskirts of where I live they had had enough to settle and set which is still here this morning. Tomorrow and Friday are predicted to be our bad days.

I checked out of the hotel in Southampton this morning, I am going to drive back to Monmouthshire sometime today... looks like the decent snow will happen overnight tonight..... work from home tomorrow and Friday.... no point in sitting in traffic queues or worse!
Still none here in southern Spain... #shortsRus

Enough in Watford to close the course. That will be it for golf til next weekend, as tomorrow and Friday are meant to be worse.

Red weather warning has just been issued for the Central Tayside and Fife. Sounds grim. I wouldn't even be thinking about venturing out up there.

See I was showing empathy just not getting involved in this thread and you have to start things
We had an extreme weather warning in place earlier today, the UV index rating reached 13.7 (which I understand is off the scale) Take shelter they said, don't look directly at the sand, skin and eyes may burn in a few minutes if not protected!
Not much panic buying but limes are running low for the Mojito's I'm told
Stay safe on the roads everyone

No golf, course under 4" (10 cms) today, so why not put things to good use?

I like that idea, I could use my S7 remote, and stay indoors.

Do you have snow chains?
