Just a tiny bit of a dusting here.  We never have any fun.  Although negotiating an icy down ramp in the multi-storey car park this morning had one or two interesting moments.   ;D

There was a warning of heavy snow here for today, but that appears to have been revised now, so I'm guessing someone else is going to get it instead.

Thats not good, I may have to go pick up the wife when she gets back this evening then.  Being from a tropical country she's useless at driving in the snow  :-/

Plus we hope to fly out on Sunday  :o

Did the same here in Chertsey - snowed like mad for 20 minutes (though it was that 'almost hail' snow that comes down like little polystyrene balls) and then clear blue skies..

Another flurry just now of proper snowflakes, but it's still a light dusting rather than anything else. Yet.

Are you flying via anywhere? Short haul flights to Frankfurt are ~90% cancelled at the moment, so I'd expect the same of any flights via there..

Straight from Heathrow to the West coast of USA, then a short hop across the Pacific to Oahu  8-)

Fingers crossed we make it out though as we fly standby, so one cancelled flight and I can be stuck for days :(

Mind you I wont be upset to get stuck on the way back ;D

Ahh good choice of route ;) I came back from Seattle on Sunday and it took 24 hours - our original flight was via Chicago until Chicago got snowed out, rerouted via Toronto until the plane broke down and we all had to get off.. ended up coming back via Vancouver with a 6hr stop there before a direct flight back to Heathrow.. (Naturally our luggage went walkabout somewhere in there  ::) )

Anyhoo.. enjoy Oahu you lucky  :-X ;D
