Snow in Wadebridge

I awoke this morning to snowfall

and about half an inch of snow on the ground, accompanied by flashes of

lightening and loud thunder. Yet despite living in one of the many neighbouring

villages in close proximity to Wadebridge it appeared we saw the worst of it,

with the town hardly receiving any snowfall at all.

The Met Office has this morning issued warnings of heavy snow for southwest

Scotland, Lothian and Borders, northeast England, and Yorkshire and Humber.

Weather forecasters

predict the cold spell will last for almost a fortnight, with temperatures expected

to drop to -5C in some areas over the next few days.

This temperature is

far lower than those normally experienced in November, possibly since the

1980’s.

More exposed, rural

areas are unlikely to see temperatures rise much above 2C-5C by day.

So what happens when

you wake up one weekday morning and it’s a white winter wonderland outside your

window?

Are the schools open?

What are the roads like?
