Snowy Shetland

A lot of Shetland folk are saying this winter has been the coldest and snowiest  since 2010, its certainly the worst since we moved up 7+ years ago

 It was odd that in the south mainland we have virtually none yet 10 miles north in Lerwick they had a good covering so much in fact that the police gave a warning not to drive into the town as cars were getting stuck in a number of places

The top scenes are from Gulberwick which always seems to get a good covering and perhaps has the most accidents recorded, at Black Gaet

Meanwhile a few days later in Lerwick the snow and ice can still be found with the day temperature often not going above freezing.

We more than 3.000 vaccinated in Shetland its hoped that life will return to as normal as possible, we have now gone 12 days without any new cases
