jaydee67 Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 I left Ollaberry at lunchtime and the roads were white to the north Sullom junction then you could seen the road all the way to Voe. A lot of snow has come down since and the roads are white everywhere. The essy cart was in a ditch on a side road in Ollaberry when I left. My daughter has just come home from Lerwick and there is heavy snow falling with road conditions worse as she came north. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unlinkedstudent Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 Well, car did pass its MOT and took me an hour driving carefully from Virkie to Lerwick and about an hour on the home journey - was easier coming back from Lerwick than it was going there - gritters are definitely out - cheers gritters!

paulb Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 the main roads should be ok. but don't go down the halfway house route. easy to get stuck there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJ Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 all westsdie Eid cluster schools are schools are closed and the wast road (waas tae lerwick) isn't good. still waiting for my 6.50am call...the 8am bus fae walls is currently running about 15minutes late, but traffic is getting through. If like me you've got to get there good luck and drive safely (which does not mean causing a convoy going at 13miles an hour). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BHL2007 Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 Jeez - it is fairly coming down out there now - and massive flakes. The wind will cause drifting this afternoon so I'd say if you don't need to go out in it, then don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 ^^ Whereabouts BHL ? Snowfal is fairly localised (ie not a lot falling up here in our region of Northmavine). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fjool Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 Drifting quite badly at many places along the road between Lerwick and Sumburgh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
