This is why Jan, Feb and March are rubbish

If I could I would leave the country - these months have no purpose and are depressing.

PLEASE feed them birdies who I fret about in this climate

Bird boxes are a must for the summer 

NEWCASTLE - at least 3 inches of snow last night 

Scotland : lots and lots of snow

Don’t worry Sainty, I’m putting lots of extra food out for the birdies

 That’s us! 

Stay safe everyone.  It's bad everywhere but it seems to be worse in Scotland 

NEWCASTLE

We've had approx. one inch of snow this evening covering people's footsteps.

Wind has been wiping it off the roofs into a blizzard at times.

God help those poor wild animals

You're lucky. I guestimate we had 3-4 inches of snow though the day. I now think we've had another inch. I've sent pics to other Fm's who can vouch for that and I live in the North East too 

NEWCASTLE

About 4 inches of snow overnight AND it's windy

I've cleared the path and fed the birds - heaven help them

Scotland

More snow overnight - 6inches approx

Still feeding the birds, Sainty. Poor little things are so hungry atm.

Our garage door has been frozen shut - so literally we've been 'snowed in' over the last few days.

We live on a hill and daren't even try going out in the car.

We are down to 4 toilet rolls.

Oh the humanity !!! I mean . . .  humility

NEWCASTLE

IT'S MELTING !!!!   . . . .    slowly

Still in Poole. No travel to Scotland yet.

Is that Poole in Dorset?

Omg don't even think of traveling the length of the country.

The A1 north of Alnwick is closed

Yes, Poole in Dorset. And I'm still here and have no intention of travelling today now. Not sure whether I'll be able to travel tomorrow either!

I'm back home - 12 and a half hours on the road!

 what route did you choose?

You must have seen the broad spread of weather conditions across the country.

Any observations?

Positively balmy here today in Cheshire

Train from Bournemouth to London Waterloo

Underground from Waterloo to Euston

Train from Euston to Carlisle

Coach from Carlisle to Glasgow

Train from Glasgow to Wishaw

Car from Wishaw to home

I couldn't see much really and I dozed a lot. What I could see didn't look that terribly bad, but this was after 3 days of clearing up operations! And by the time we got to where one might have expected the worst conditions.........it was dark and could see even less!

Having said that, there still was quite a lot of snow around, like piled up on exposed platforms and such.

  I was gripped

Thanks folks.

Newcastle - the big thaw, thank goodness

Thawed a bit up here too, but it'll be a while 'til it's all gone. Even though it was raining when I got into Glasgow on Sunday evening.

NEWCASTLE

Raining Monday night - almost all snow gone by Tues morning.

Today (Wed) sunny and mild like The Beast never happened

 That was a marathon journey, Fluffs 

Scotland : Dry and bright

Lanarkshire - Drizzly, not too breezy, but rather cold.
