I was just about to say its snowing here in Rugby too. Not sticking though. All trains cancelled I would imagine though

They are cancelling trains all over the shop, the friday before last there was a bit of a shower at 5 and they had the cheek to blame the "inclement weather" for the network chaos. London Midland are a joke.

Hit 28c here today with a clear sky...

Not usual to see snow back home this early in the season though. Sign of a cold winter ahead?

You aren't in Australia by any chance? Heading out for first time next month for a holiday
Yes...

Any tips on what there's to do in Brisbane?

Morton Island is very good.
I did the day trip when there.

Yeah, I've heard of Morton Island, mate I'm staying with in Brisbane mentioned it, I'll have a go at that

Well what is the story around the country todays regards the snow. In dungannon it is causing trouble with some roads blocked with stranded cars.

Heavy snow in Carricknacross, Co Monaghan. Roads pretty bad, no word on news bulletins or AA road watch. The car slid across the road on me as I turned into office after lunch. As bad as I've seen in few years, if it freezes on that the roads will be death traps. Looks like the council have been caught off guard

Can anyone tell me what the snow's like around Monaghan? Need to travel from Belfast to Monaghan on my own later on and won't bother if it's dangerous (car isn't much use in wintry weather).
