They can't even predict a couple of days in advance accurately - let alone almost a week, so I don't think there's any need to plan ahead for this just yet! Lets dig this thread up at the weekend and see

And btw, where is your source anyway?

Surely things need to have started again for them to stop? Or is that just up here? Haven't been able to do much since before Christmas. Nothing has melted, subsequent snow has just added to what was there, and it's getting annoying.

I can state with complete certainty that there is a 50% chance that Pete is correct

Yep. It's a right pain. And who said Scoobies were good in the snow. Mine is diabolical.
Anyone says it is the driver, will get a swift kick up the ass

I have found Scoobies to be great in the snow. Therefore...

Well my Subaru was better than my Focus. Was out one night last week and got stuck at 9pm in the middle of nowhere. I had a shovel in the boot seeing as I live out in the country and had to dig myself out my drive anyway.

After an hour or so digging in the pitch black and letting the front tyres down as a last resort(carry an electic compressor at the mo due to a slow puncture... lucky again) I finally got out!

So I miss the Subaru in that respect!

I live out in the sticks too, and my drive is up hill and like a dogs hind leg. Scooby is the only car getting out. Other halfs, is stuck at the bottom of the drive.
It does not stop any better though and slides like a good 'un

BMW's were strewn across the county a few days ago - now, either BMW drivers are dicks, or the rear wheel drive doesn't work in the snow .... or both!!
