It’s snowing here now.

There hasn’t been any serious snow fall around here since last Thursday but when I threw open the curtains this morning it was snowing very lightly. An hour later and the snow is becoming quite steady and heavy. Are we finally going to join the rest of the country weatherwise?

With overnight minus 18degC temperatures farmers in the area are now unable to harvest root crop’s, carrots, beet and parsnip, due to the ground being rock hard. There is every likelihood that when they do thaw out there will be a race to harvest them or they will rot in the ground and then there will be a shortage on the supermarket shelves. Ho hum, such is life!
