The Snow is falling on my small town!!



My home town of Fleet, was reported today on the BBC news as having the most snowfall in Hampshire, victory I say for our small town. However the conditions have left many people stranded and stuck in their homes. Of course this is not minded by all the school children who have receive the day off, and are playing outside till they are too cold to move. I love watching the snow fall, from the inside of the house, but this large amount of snow fall is now becoming a nascence for myself and others. I am worried about my own travel arrangements for this weekend, when traveling to work. I have no clue if the trains will be running by Friday, therefore no train, I get no money from work. As a skint student that is not a good combination. The snow is beautiful but not without its consequences. Hundreds of drivers where left stranded on the M3 last night as the snow fell. Several airports have been closed, meaning thousands of flights cancelled. Other main worries are the supplies for the gritters, with supplies running out quickly a lot of main roads are not being gritted therefore making it harder for the public. With freezing conditions and snow fall till late tonight, it is apparent that many people may be snowed in for a few days yet.
