I was so impressed with how early Ophelia was caught and modelled and same again with this - it must be more than a week ago when I first read about it here? Luckily I've a good employer and also I'm not in a frontline role so I don't have to worry about getting in tomorrow. Huge respect for the front line services who are at their posts now and will be in the morning. I really hope other employers in affected areas, or with staff from affected areas, belatedly exercise cop on and let people stay home. In this weather minor things can become major emergencies - a slip, a skid, a fall can lead to serious complications and they're always more likely to happen when people are under pressure. Conversely, if people are able to enjoy a rare occurrence like the one we're having right now, the memories can be magical and last a lifetime. *raises glass*
