What's the weather doing where you are?

[Steve]

Yep send Barman our snow and West Sussex county council who it seems though gritting was for other people to do

Over 8 hours to get back from Somerset, most of it stuck in the land of we can't be arsed to grit.

Oh dear, just watching the reports from the M23/A23. Seems you were one of the "lucky" ones, some stuck for over ten hours and still there

Bright blue skies and sunny here. Smattering of snow on the ground but very cold.

Indeed, always have a 4x4.  Meant we could divert onto minor roads.

You almost have to admire the sheer top grade feckwitery of councils.  Faced with a forecast of shit weather

[Steve]

Well first of all let me complete the pot after CWMBO walked all over keyboard and submitted it arf done

 . . . . You almost have to admire the sheer top grade feckwitery of councils.  Faced with a forecast of shit weather at 4pm and the certainty of a rush hour they freely admit they decided to send gritters out at 8pm.  And then moan the gritters couldn't get through. 

right you asked

. . .Were you allowed to drive...? 

Yes but didn't.  I was/am too lurged and Mrs K is very good at snow driving.  The car (X-Trail)was awesome.

I was far more annoyed by the idiot and his wife who decided that, despite all the warnings given out yesterday, they would choose last evening to drive 45 minutes to "Go out for a meal" and got stuck overnight in their car....... As reported on the "Today" programme. ..... Now THAT is fuckwittery of the highest order.

The thing is, that was the county council. From what I could see, the problem was the M23/A23 which are Highways Agency routes, and on TV they were reporting that traffic was being diverted onto the county roads which appeared to be running. 

[Steve]

Aha I stand corrected - ta. 

So what were the fools at the Highways agency doing at 3pm.   Playing Mornington Crescent?

[apc2010]

Warm but cloudy.......

[Steve]

Bright sunshine horizon to horizon.  Snow blindness beckons
