Snow
Just had an outburst of heavyish rain here by Hereford and now it's passed on away towards Worcester, the suns come out and we've got a great view of the Black Mountains with a covering of snow Thumbs Up



You just know it won't come to much as all we'll get is rain Rolling Eyes It's getting harder to justify those new tyres from Peterborough Show Rolling Eyes

Just about disappeared in the afternoon then they had another sprinkling later on so they'd have a whitish look before the sun went down

Was snowing tonight when I came home from work and I was in the shopping trolley! But it seems to have come to nothing Sad
Maybe when I wake up in the morning there might be snow everywhere. But hopefully not enough for a snow day or I will feel cheated cos I've finished for the week.

Funnily enough I went for a walk up the hill behind the farm (Black Mountains) and was looking at Hereford from the top just before it closed in and we were caught in a blizzard that left it all white. I should have waved at the OP Laughing Tops are still white here this morning...

A very light dusting overnight.

Not much use to the Scottish Ski industry - they'll be having a rough time.

There was a sled dog rally here last weekend...I can inly assume they raced on wheels rather than skis Laughing

And you'd expect me to wave back wouldn't you Rolling Eyes standing there on the top of your hill waving at the little people in the lowlands Laughing Can still see a bit of the white stuff up there now but as sure as eggs are eggs and sheep uo there are worried we won't be getting any Rolling Eyes
