The overnight snow here wasn't as apocalyptic as predicted. At the moment it's snowing very lightly, it's quite mild and the accumulated snow-depth is a measly 15mm at the most. Yes, that's mm not cm. The cars have a light dusting of snow, but they're not iced-up, there having been no overnight freeze.
Even this piddly-farty amount of the fabled white-stuff is enough for the local junior and infant schools to announce that they won't be open today. Less that a mile away from them, however, the local high school is open. How does that work, then?
