Deep drifts here in Horwich, cutting off minor roads. Some people haven't been able to get out for two days (partly because some idiot got his 4x4 stuck in a drift and abandoned it parked across the carriageway, while Makinson Lane is behind a barricade of snow six feet high). Where snow cleared, the sun was enough to clear any remnants, but the drifts remain. Bitter and biting winds make the moors less than inviting!
