International Troublemaking Grouch
I remember a few snows in the Far North in the late 1980s but they were rubbish. I think school only shut twice. Boo.
I had to come further north to get proper snow and school only shuts if it is a proper blizzard. It's the wind that keeps us off, not the snow.

There was definitely heavy snow in 1991, February I think. I caught chickenpox and was quarantined in university sick bay until the M1 was cleared enough for my dad to come and collect me.
Also remember some from early childhood, 1976 possibly.
But never seen it like it is at the moment. Hard packed on pavements and ungritted roads. No slush or ice. And the drifting on Thursday was something else.

Currently in the middle of a thaw so I'm expecting a wet and dirty run tomorrow morning
And possibly a lot of cancelled races could have gone ahead, though I don't blame any organiser for making the call before people have travelled etc.

Late 80s ?87 we were cut off by drifting just like this one. Heavy falls in 2000 and 2010 plus 2011. We get cut off pretty easily because we live somewhere no-one goes so we're bottom of the list for gritting and ploughing.
