Ah, winter

Apparently tonight we're getting our first significant snowfall, possibly up to 15cm. We've had odds and ends of snow already, starting in November, but nothing enough to require shovelling.

So far.

I'm hoping they're wrong. This wasn't even in the forecast yesterday evening! They only added it to the forecast overnight (and then they sent out special weather statements in scary red bars at the top of all the weather apps, probably because they're so late forecasting it) so I don't feel prepared, even though I actually am.

*sigh*

I just have to get through this winter, and then I won't have to deal with quite this level of snow and awfulness any more. Not that England doesn't ever have snow, but it's a rarity rather than an inevitability that you wait for and get nervous about when it doesn't come. Mostly because the later it starts, the worse it is as nature tries to provide you with all the usual snow in a shorter period.

Apparently it will warm up and rain a bit later in the weekend, so hopefully the snow isn't going to pile up too badly too early.
