Where I live on the south coast, C, we are protected by a cup of hills. As a result, I have not seen even a single snowflake for years, though areas to both east and west are regularly subject to dreadful conditions.
What really amazes and amuses me, having spent my childhood in the north-east of Scotland, where 6-foot deep snowdrifts are common, is the way English schools close down the minute there is a dusting of snow on the ground. Plus, of course, southern English car-owners have not the least notion of how to drive at such times.
I'm sure you are having things much worse in your own neck of the woods.
