I’ve just had a snow day
Now, snow days in the American sense don’t actually exist in the United Kingdom although that said several councils have already started to alert families via local and social media that their schools will be closed tomorrow, but I am calling it a snow day because that’s what happened. It snowed here for the first time in four years
And it wasn’t just us that had snow, not by a long stretch, as the Met Office published an amber snow warning that covered vast parts of North and Mid Wales, the Midlands and even some parts of the North West and with very good reason as well, as the extent was even more than that as shown by these bobbies on the beat in Oxford
A snow covered bicycle in Birmingham
and a rather confused looking rabbit in Redditch
But just because it has stopped snowing doesn’t mean we are out of the woods, snow wise, because tonight it is going to get down to at least -3°C here (27°F) and in some parts of the country where snow is all over the place on Monday night it will get down to as low as -12°C (10°F), but you know what? I wouldn’t have missed today for the world and you can bet your bottom dollar there will be more pictures tomorrow.
