Doubt whether it'll make any difference. We're on the outskirts of the city, so the main road gets gritted. But the pavements don't. It's OK on the side roads - you can walk on the road. But along the main road, the pavements are like ice, and there's continuous 40mph traffic alongside you.

The elderly are expected to stay indoors if it snows.
