I was chinwagging with someone in Norwich today who is doing some research from me. She said that Norwich and the surrounding area is terrible atm.

[Psybbo]

Do you know if it has reached Norwich, fgt?

[Psybbo]

Ah, didn't see you there Barmaid

[shaneystar2]

My son lives in Norwich he says it's bad there .We haven't got one flake on my side of the county .

[friedgreentomato]

It's unusual for weybourne to get snow being so close to the sea but dad says its real bad up there.

[friedgreentomato]

Ahhh your not on the blessed side then shaney ;-)

[Baldric]

Hi sibton, No.1 daughter lives in Earlham Rd, and says yes it has, quite a lot!

[Barmaid]

Apparently Grapes Hill is closed.

[redcrx]

Local news says north norfolk has up to about 4 inches of snow. Some FB friends up near there certaily seem to have a lot judging by the pics.

Temperatures are going to plummet tonight to about -6 in towns so tomorrow will be very bad. Go carefully if you do have to venture out folks.

[redcrx]

Grapes hill would be scary in the ice! the airport is closed too.

[Baldric]

Bm, Just been sent some photos of Grapes Hill!

Well, I've been at work in Norwich all day and had to stay into the evening as the next shift couldn't get in. It was just as well to be honest as the roads were terrible. Thick snow has now iced over and to add to the fun we have fog too now.

Grapes Hill, Long John Hill, Farmers Avenue and Ketts Hill were all closed and accidents blocked most of the major routes. Some people have been stuck in their cars for hours, having left one side of the city at say 3pm and still trying to make it across to maybe Dereham or Taverham in gridlocked streets at 8pm. Staff at the hospital are having to sleep over as the roads in that area are all closed. Buses ceased at 6pm and there is no way out now.

I was just as well off at work where its warm and I have now crept home at 20 mph on reasonably clear but icy roads. Its -10 out there now! brrrrrr

Glad your home safe maid up xx
