Poster: A snowHead
|
I have just travelled the M20 between jct 8 to Dover and the road is passable, single lane traffic @ 30-40mph max.
Eurotunnel is ok-ish but the road over the Downs to Dover needs lots of care.
Travellers will need to factor in the slow progress but should get through with lots of caution.
The roads have gritters doing many passes and as along as there is not a ffreeze the roads should remain passable
But the bright side is that hopefully this weather is heading down to the alpes.

easiski, Variable, 4 inches on Romney Marsh according to my friend there, a light dusting further inland - some showers around groombridge/Tunbridge Wells, laid for a bit then melted at plus 1deg. About -2 now, with more snow forecast. Nothing to write home about really - much like any winter so far! All depends where you are I suppose - some pics on the news of East Anglia and Suffolk in particular looked quite well covered. No snow on Box at any rate!

easiski,
I doubt if you can ski on the downs ... the snow on the hills would be about 4 inches or so and therefore the grass would still show through and trip you up..... Dry ski slopes might be ok but I'm of on the 8th so I will wait..
By the amount of snow the south has got we would imagine its on its way to you... here's hoping anyway...!!
Looked at Swiss webcams today and the sky is very grey.... just what I like to see on webcams....!!

The main roads are open and passable at reasonable speeds....gritters are still out and beware of black ice ...otherwise the channel routes are ok
