Anyone caught up in or had any damage?
I really feel for anyone caught up in the stoppage on M1 south jct19 or indeed any of theknock on from jctns being closed. I bet m69 fosse park Leicester jct 21 is a nightmare.

We had a few flakes of snow here in Hampshire/Surrey which means that everyone will suddenly go in to pillock mode. Cue the rear fog lights, driving down the middle of dual-lane roads and a general failure to clear lights and windows of frost and melting snow.
Oh the joys of living darn sarf.

Had everything in Lincolnshire this morning, heavy rain snow & sleet ! Dog needs walking supposed to clear by 2pm, fingers crossed.

Only our sixth day of rain since start of September, it is horrible walking the dog and washing mud off later

I was out with the dog, in the sleet and snow, at 8:30. Got soaked and it was freezing cold. Got in about half nine and the sun came out. Typical. :(
-
Friggin cold and pissing it down around here.
I hate it, the bloody dog is bouncing around like a big puppy ;D
I want a dog that hibinates between november and march next time ;D
Bah Friggin Humbug

Drove home from daughters in early hours of this morning, (only a few miles, thankfully). Water everywhere across the roads. Texted granddaughter to warn her, she got home safe too.

It took me 6 hours to get from Dorking, Surrey to Kings Lynn, Narfik today. >:(

In chicago now, -17C and a few inches of snow on the ground. Everything is still running but the signs on the pavement which say "watch out for falling ice" are a little disconcerting.

Look on the bright side, if you get clipped your wife could be $4.8m richer: https://www.corboydemetrio.com/success-45

Well I'm here looking at neighbourhoods for a future eventual move so I wont be spending long in the smoke. I am still looking up while walking along the street though.

Avoid the ones we drove through doing Route 66 .. well, I mean I know you're military trained but unless you want to use those skills on a daily basis... just judging by how they looked!

Anything south of the CBD is dodgy. Looking towards Arlington Heights area.
Doesn't route 66 start/stop in the city centre?

It does.. then again, most of the city looks like it needs flattening, too ;D
The end: https://photos.app.goo.gl/mQOg06Sv4glOq1IV2
But it runs through some of the very run down parts of the outskirts: https://www.historic66.com/illinois/det-il1.php
The same can be said for Rt66 in a lot of places, it just felt significantly more seedy in Chicago than anywhere else for some reason - maybe it's because 1960s ghost towns (all wood, ramshackle and deserted) look 'quaint' while concrete and brick crack dens look a little more intimidating ;D

I prefer the beginning:

Plus the view behind you isn't bad either.

I preferred the other end of Rt66 entirely, personally - the bit in California :y ;D
