Due some in Nottingham early hours of tomorrow, 4AM - 8AM. I'll WFH as there is no need to risk it.
I was in a Hilux last year when I had to be on-site in Halifax and the route through Grangemoor to Colne Bridge was awful. The M62 was a gridlocked no-go, got off the M1 @ 38 for Emley Moor. Not many takers my way, just narrow ungritted roads with compacted snow and at a severe camber so on bends you are sliding toward the kerb. It does say it's a high-accident route and I can see why.
I've had Winter tyres before and they do make a bit of difference, although they won't defy physics. I did get sideways a couple of times but thankfully collected it. Hence me not bothering tomorrow.
I have driven in the Arctic Circle on studded tyres and that is like defying the laws of physics!
