Sat 18th snow update

As I was writing my previous blog snow began to fall heavy and lasted for about an hour and gave an inch of snow.
Struggling to get into work now due to the absolute chaos on the roads, you might ask why? As it's only an inch! ( you can do much with an inch..)
Here's the answer: last night was bitterly cold with temperatures well below freezing, the snow that has fallen has fallen onto frozen roads turning instantly to ice not slush as cars run over the snow.
who's to blame for this carnage?
The council failing to grit of course but it's not quite that simple as grit/salt loses it's effectiveness the colder it gets.
Good job Santa uses reindeers and a sleigh eh!!
