We got our first snow of the year last night, and it started again this morning. It's that horrible wet snow that's leaving thick slush everywhere. We're due for freezing temperatures over the next few nights, so I'm expecting the roads to be very slippery. I briefly ventured into town after lunch and they were already quite bad. I don't think we got snow last year (at least none that settled) so we're not used to it here. All the shops were closing early tonight and people have been panic buying supplies for a few days. My friend's daughter's family are out in the country, and they're cut off for now.
