Well kids under 10 who've lived all their lives in Poole have seen snow for
the first time. Children, teenagers and adults who are still children have
been very creative and built snow men, igloos, stegosaurus, armchairs.
We had a very light sprinkling about 10 years ago, which disappeared very
quickly, but this has been horrible - schools closed, people trapped in
their cars overnight in some areas, buses not running. Local authorities are
running out of road salt and more is forecast - hopefully not in Poole.
Of course we aren't prepared for it because it doesn't happen very often, so
it would be a complete waste to have resources for heavy snow.
Don't like it and stayed indoors - but then I don't like it hot either. 46C
is unimaginable.
