Howdy partner !!!!

Where about are you in Norfolk,UK ? ........ overnight temps in Mulbarton warmer, roofs have lost some of their snow and the snow underfoot has started to become a tad slushy/granule .

It was bitterly cold yesterday and didn't rise above 0c, -6c on Sunday morning here.
However, as the evening wore on it warmed up. I was at Stansted at 11pm last night and it was 1c, but it started snowing finely on the way home and was settling on the A14 and M11 last night.
This morning, theres been a tiny bit more snow overnight but no sub zero temps, and yet the traffic locally has gone M E N T A L. Queues from my village into Peterborough, 9 miles. Its ridiculous, as the roads are totally passable, its just wet on the surface but people are driving at 5mph and causing the queues!
Luton at 7am this morning was a different story - fine snow from Baldock and then it was tricky across the A505 from Hitchin with 1 lane totally white and a bit slippy.
But the sun is out now and its warming up for sure.
I believe more snow is forecast later in the day though.

North Norfolk 09.30 - back from the school run - I know I'm an old softie, its only 6 miles and he could have cycled but ...
It is thawing but lots of crunching through ice on puddles and the country lanes were hilarious in places. Luckily only met the postie and a delivery tanker.
So far this year I haven't had to pull anyone out of a ditch!
