    Just a quick request.

    If you're going to be making a lot of posts about the snow, and where it's falling or "pelting down here", "not a flake where I am" etc...can we please make sure to put your location into your profile or post it in each reply!

    To put it in your profile, got to the top left of the page, click "User CP" and then "Edit your details" and save.

    (Mods if this is out of place, delete as appropriate :) )

    Great point. Makes it a lot easier to follow the track of where snow is heading.
    If there was any chance you could answer this I'd be grateful.
    How do people know how many metres above sea level they reside?
    Fascinated by that one

    I know! I'm 146m! Knew we were high since we have a good view of the city and look down on the spire and that's 120m....but didn't know I was that high!

    It's worth mentioning also that locations don't show up on the mobile site, a lot of people who are travelling may be using the mobile site so it would be nice to see a "pelting down here, in Timbuktu" or whatever.
