Although those last patches of snow mentioned last week finally disappeared from the village, it was not long before a covering was back. Certainly over the last day or so, the weather and roads have been our most popular topic for posts – and the cold spell is set to continue.

Can the local weather experts give us any clues about snow for the rest of the week?
Well, I wouldn’t consider myself an expert on anything really, but I am a bit of a weather anorak.
The next 24 hours are really interesting in that it’s very unusual in the UK to have an intense low pressure area developing right over us with such low temperatures.
We could certainly see some more snow in the short term (next 12 hours), and there seems no immediate let up in the low temperatures, which are set to remain with us into the foreseeable future (usually about 5 days in accurate forecasting terms).
It’s just like the winters we used to have when I was a lad in New Mills!
