Ah so not Meridian but the papers....u've just quoted the Daily Rags headline for yesterday ....there may well be some disruption somewhere in the country, but personally taking weather advice from a rag is bottom of the list and that doesn't make the MO perfect either
Looks a given that it's going to get colder....snow forecast but they weren't exactly confident in forecasting exactly where and how much...Wednesday evening they might be more certain....so who knows what the drive up there will be like...but nothing to suggest yet about getting stuck
Best start now then....although the Met Office has no warnings in place for Friday/Saturday

Mind u if you read the Express front page you'd give up on life
