Good luck landing this side.

You do know we had 2mm of snow so the country ground to a halt?

My mum emailed to warn me. I decided to bring my snow boots after initially planning to leave them in the car - good decision, I think.

Unless you're flying out of Boston tomorrow, you should be safe. The snow isn't supposed to start here until around 10am, so it wouldn't reach Boston until noon tomorrow.

Also, unlike London, they know how to deal with snow. ;)

I had no idea that storm was on its way until people in Boston were starting to talk about flight to Washington being cancelled! So glad that I flew yesterday rather than today.

The snow clearance here is non existent. It's pretty, but a bit dangerous. Ah, well, it's what I expect for England :-)

:) This is why I don't like to go south during the winter. At least I'm far enough north that they know how to deal with snow.

But they keep pushing the storm back. Now it's supposed to get here around 3pm.

What I'm most worried about at the moment is that I'm flying to Sacramento via Denver right after New Year's for my brother's wedding. Talk about being potentially snowed in.

Of course I blame you and your previous 'it doesn't snow in London a Christmas' post entirely for the fact that my driving test got postponed yesterday... We've had none overnight but it has been colder (not entire surface of canal frozen cold, only about half way across) but that shouldn't be a problem ( ... )

I apologise profusely for that blog entry. I had no idea what I'd cause!

Mum emailed me yesterday to tell me what had happened so I popped my snow boots in the case rather than leaving them in the car. Good decision. It was about what I expected from her description and the BBC News site, but not nice. Why can't people learn to drive sensibly in the snow? You've not got bloody snow tires on the car! I appreciate Canadian snow ploughs so much and I love my snow tires.

The Channel Tunnel thing is just crazy.
