2010-11-30 Roadrat + snow (1) by ally mitchell, on Flickr
And these were this morning after we'd cleared the road. Again. It's since snowed pretty much constantly since and there's a further 3-4" ont eh bits we just cleared. Estimated total depth that's fallen since Friday night is 30-36" (2.5-3 foot!). The Z4 is obviously going nowhere lol.

Yes, a bit further west though - I'm pretty much at the "tail of the bank"
The photo is looking over towards the Roseneath transmitter. Helensburgh is pretty much opposite me and if I look to the far right of the river I can just about make out the Erskine bridge.

My Daughters decided it was more fun to cover the entire car with snow rather than clearing it

Love the husky JonW, what is he(she?) called? Looks right at home playing in the snow
Right. You lot take the blame for getting me off my warm cosy seat in front of the fire and into a cold street armed with an SLR and getting strange looks from passing pedestrians. So just what is so strange about a person taking photos of snow that means you have to stop dead in your tracks and gawp at them until you realise they are actually looking at you?! :?
I'd post one of the car, but it's not here...

We got off lightly in Cardiff, this was about 2 hours before the snow stopped.
The whole City still came to a grinding halt though and my 15 minute drive home took me an hour.
Luckily I didn't go on the M4, there was a 26 mile tail back from Magor to Llantrisant. :thumbsdown:
If we had the levels of snow you get in North England and Scotland it would be hillarious

Pahh you southerners don't even know what snow is! 
Well here's todays offering in Rotherham.
The view from my window this morning. Spot the Zed?!
Even the main road (top of the gates) was covered in it. The X5 made it out but struggled.
Outside my front door. Dressed for the weather! (And no, we weren't trying to get the 6 out lol, just wanted something out of it!)
My drive.
Yep, walked to work again today!
No way was the Z4 getting up there.
This was when I opened the gate to get out at the top.
And we're ready for the 45 minute walk! It was this deep all the way to work! But we still called in Asda and got a few bags of shopping to take home after!
But we did have fun after work building Harryella the hermaphrodite snowman! :lol:
Boob job gone wrong?!
So yeah, Rotherham is a bit snowed in!

As Paddy says, if it stays like this then probably not. But I have heard that today and tomorrow are to be the worst. And the end of the week/weekend won't be so bad. I will let you know at the end of the week. I want to get out and about too!
I'm impressed Lucy...
clearing the snow complete with Chanel handbag (and Hunters)

OK here is what it is like in Wexford, Ireland this morning. Cleared the roof of last night as I was worried about the weight on the top. Glad I got my tonneau cover I can tell you! Anyway got me thinking...... What if you crossed a Z4 roadster with an X5, Mmmmm.....

i'm near the city centre just off burton road
the main roads are all fine but if you go down any side streets with little traffic, then yes they are like this
Ahh i live in the city center too... in Friar Gate... but down in London at the moment.. trying to get away from the snow.. which has reached here now too
I'll have to keep a lookout for you in Derby
Took some better photos this morning after more snow overnight here in SE London. Nothing compared to you northerners of course, but sufficient for me to decide to work from home with the thermostat turned up
Still playing with my new D90 toy (so don't judge me!) but note the friendly silver Zed parked opposite me. Not sure if it's a forum members but do see it around SE3 quite a bit.
