I was on the Omagh - Cookstown road at 4.30pm. Scary as hell, the snow was belting it down out of the heavens. Couldn't see a foot pass the front of the car. Glad I'm indoors now and have no intentions of leaving the rest of the day. Not even tomorrow, if this keeps up!

Its not snowing in Belfast at the minute and the roads themsevles are fine - main road, Ormeau Malone, Ravenhill etc. The roads seem to be generally passable - I drove from Belfast to Downpatrick and back earlier and it was slow going but manageable.

You could go an entire season in Tyrone without seeing one sometimes.
