InvictaSaint Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 Good Morning all. Don't know about you chaps down there in sunny Southampton, but up here in chilly north Kent we have had almost a foot of snow and it is looking the same up in Yorkshire. I don't know what the chances are of the game being called off tomorrow, but if you are a hardy soul who is planning to travel up to Leeds, do take care. I can't even get out of my front door!

Same situation in Essex! I'm due to be going to Leeds tomorrow, although if I can't move my car... Also my brother is flying in from Ireland for this game, and I'm the one with the tickets.

Doctoroncall Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 Not so bad here in Cambridge, only a couple of inches but still enough to disrupt things. Not sure what the forecast is but would have thought the major routes to be clear by tomorrow if no more snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norwaysaint Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 Minus 10 this morning but still no snow here. Although there's loads if I just drive for about an hour. Bergen's a bit hopeless for snow, we're better at rain but it's not the same really. I can see snow capped mountains in most directions which helps with the Christmassy feeling.

thesaint sfc Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 I went down a hill on the way to work and the car slid at about 10MPH to the bottom. I tried everything to slow down, but just skidded to the side, fortunately I crashed into a lorry with large tyres (hit his back wheel) so no damage to my car or the lorry.

mdearlove Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 Crazy that the news is reporting that the snow is causing serious problems. A friend of mine lives in Stockholm where he had 40cm of snow yesterday on top of 35cm already on the ground. His daughter was at school and they even went on a field trip! I guess they are a little more used to it but its a bit ridiculous that we can't cope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloke went past me doing 60 clipped the slush and started doing ballerina impressions and ended up in a ditch. Its not just here that the ****s drive like dimwits, I was in Canada staying with friends for Xmas quite a few years ago arrived in heavy Snow which was great. Stayed in Toronto overnight then the next evening headed about 200 miles to the north east towards Ottowa, the snow had eased up but there was mountains of the stuff all around. As we drove up the highway every so often someone would pass us like we were going backwards, and so the game started: how many miles down the road will that car be off the road. It was stunning nearly every single car that blasted past us was buried in the central reservation within the next 10 miles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OttawaSaint Posted 18 December, 2009 Share Posted 18 December, 2009 Bloody nora, a bit of snow and everything comes to a standstill. How long before Ottawa Saint is on here telling us about the 30 metres of snowfall in his town last night? Haha nice one! We did have a record yearly snowfall 2 years ago of over 4 metres in total, but we only have about 60cms of it on the ground at the moment. Today it is -26c outside so I don't think we'll see any flurries today. Don't be embarrassed about the snow causing a standstill, one time Toronto got a light dusting and had to call in the army, they'll never live that down...

Sounds about right, in Canada the road is full of total retards who somehow forget to drive when it gets icy, never ceases to amaze me how many idiots speed during an ice storm...
