    Have any NP 'prepped' for snow?

    I put the last of last years rock salt down on the path up to the chooks & bunnies.
    Bought a new bag of rock salt.
    Charged the torch
    Told Mr S to make plan B in case he makes it back from Russia at midnight tomorrow and if the taxi cannot make it along our roads so he will go to a hotel.

    No stocking up though. Just normal shopping. We have tins in the pantry, meat in the freezer and assorted veg along with dairy in the fridge. Quite a lot of wine...

    That is it. Feeling very grown up and sensible though (I think it was buying the rock salt that did it).

    snow, lots of it, i think they said upto 15cm across the UK. Forecast to fall on Friday and Saturday.
    Weather Warning For Heavy Snow

    A band of heavy, intense snow is expected to push East across the UK during Friday. As the front runs into freezing air so the rain will turn quickly to snow.

    Snowfall amounts are likely to vary widely across parts of Wales and Western England, however between 5-15cm is expected at lower levels with up to 25cm across higher ground.

    Winds are expected to gust up to 50mph across higher ground leading to blizzard conditions with significant drifting.

    Temperatures are expected to remain below freezing across much of the UK on Friday night leading to a hard frost with ice patches.

    Disruption to travel is highly likely during Friday especially across Wales, Western and Central England.

    Have had an exciting few days. Yesterday i. Got to see a full on sea rescue. Why anyone would take out a small fising boat, nice but small, into international shippping lanes 50 ;miles at least from the Usa then run o7tt of fuel with no lifejackets. Idiots. Dont know what they thought when a 140000 tonne cruise ship answered their distress call. Made for. the most interesting deck show though.
