Shot ice on the roads up here last night then snow showers through the night and throughout today leaving the main roads gridlocked most of the morning. I was sure the council said they were ready for it this year but I think because of health and safety the grit wagons can only come out in Queensbury during good weather.
There has been some nice sunny periods with clear blue skies between the snow which gave birders from Halifax chance to get up Soil Hill to find at least another 3 Snow Buntings have arrived up there, what hardy little birds these are.
Otherwise things have been quiet with unusually no gulls in the park this lunchtime.
