    Just drove from Dartford to Canterbury and back. The roads are absolutely fine.

    They are now but will not be when the match finishes if the predicted snow falls.
    It melted on the roads this morning because the ground was relatively warm from yesterday, think hex already said this.

    Intermittent blizzards on the M62, speed restrictions of 50 mph. Sunshine now in West Yorkshire with the odd flurry.

    Was at the Vimy Ridge memorial earlier today, don’t think I’ve been so cold for years.

    Couldn’t walk around most of it as it was covered in ice.

    Seems to be the only league match off at the moment

    What's the chances of the pitch being watered before kick off.
    I swear they would even water it if it was raining.

    I can only assume it has been postponed as a precaution given the forecast of worse snow later.

    I live six miles or so East of the ground and although it has snowed most of the time since 7am or so it has only really settled on lawns and cars. The roads, even side roads, are ok at the moment.

    According to Kentonline the match was called off on safety grounds due to snow in the open away stand.

    That's a fair thing to do, that stand would be horrible today

    Says heavy snow for the south east (Surrey, Sussex, Kent, London equally) from 8pm till 4 or 5 am. Temp below zero consistently. I would be surprised if it doesn’t stick at some point

    Bastard biting freezing wind tonight but just a sprinkling of the white stuff up north. Bit like summer really.

    The pitch was playable, it was the horrendous away end that was to blame.

    Bromley has had a tiny bit but going through Peckham it was quite hard.

    Were you sitting over the engine ?

    Snow seems to have settled when you stay on the old A2 into Strood - Good to see that the Gritters have been out everywhere but here.

    Perfect timing too as goes to show what my £70 council tax increase will be spent on for 2018/19 (i.e. Nowt useful!!)

    And even in Sunny Cornwall. It looks like a Christmas card here.

    No snow for 8 years, and then twice in 2 weeks in March.
    It's usually Spring here long before now. Taint right. The planet's buggered.

    Not a thread I've been looking forward to seeing this year I must admit

    Is there anyone on here from the Telford area? - Due to drive my missus up there in a few weekends for some Conference of hers but have already told her that it wont be happening if there is snow fall either down here or up there
