CaptainMarvel Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 any news on the snow? really want to get to this one so fingers crossed its not too bad. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandie Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Once that snow has gone through it should be okay. No significant weather pattern following it till late tonight. So I think we will start out soon. I must be mad!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Bee Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 But how long's it going to take for that snow to go through ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanisnumber1 Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 That is the question!! Been snowin here for 3 hours, the roads are covered and we have got drifts outside my house!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Clemens Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 But how long's it going to take for that snow to go through ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The answer is blowing in the wind - so the harder you blow the sooner it will go. It's still falling here 14 miles from sheffield but it's getting slower and there are blue streaks in the sky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.w Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 aint it just like the weather to ruin our hopes of a great meeting to start the season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plantpot Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Well the snake and woodhead pass are still open (at the moment) and they are usually the first to close when the weather is bad. No problems with the roads yet according to radio shefffield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Looking outside I am two miles from the track, and the snow is coming not very thick, there is snow on the ground, but been shopping around near the track and the snow had not settled, and did not look as though it would.

Cleric Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 10:50 Sean Cracker is still on, according to his website. Fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keepturningleft Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 My house, Huddersfield, 18 miles from Owlerton, it's snowing quite hard. Don't know if I can get out of my driveway let alone to Sheffield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krissie Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 thankfully owlerton is in a dip with high hills surrounding it so hopefully the snow will pass it by Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandie Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 (edited) It is nothing like that here <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Looking outside I am two miles from the track, and the snow is coming not very thick, there is snow on the ground, but been shopping around near the track and the snow had not settled, and did not look as though it would. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Very confussing. Weve got Phil who obviously has an extra interest in this meeting saying its clear and Spin King saying there has been snow - both in the same area!!!! I am now confussed. Having had my husband stuck in the snow for 24 hours before it does not fill me with any great enthusiasm to make this trip - life threatening springs to mind!!! But I will go along with Phil's post that the weather is fine. And pray it's not just hype to get us there.

Edit - Thanks for that Krissie - I was typing whilst you were posting - it makes more sense now I was replying to SeansNumber 1 posts saying "It is nothing like that here" as in no snow drifts! I am about 10 miles form the track, as we know the weather can be totaly different at different location. Let just keep our fingers crossed. Just keep checking seans website to check if it is on or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
