Amadeus Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 The Airport is closed until 10:00, snow clearing operations are going well, next update at 09:30. Passengers are advised to check with their airline before travelling to the airport We are reasonably confident of 10:00 Airport opening, subject to no further significant snow falls.

The Raven King Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 well your a happy sod arent you, well dont read them if you feel there tiresome, ill-informed, i think not, lack of knowledge once again i dont think so. You sound like you work in the isle of man met, not fooking idea. causeing alarm, i would not say so, you only get alamed if you are thet type of person that panics, go bol ones head. let it snow let it snow I don't happen to be a met person but it's difficult to encounter many threads without meeting your 'wisdom'. It must be a burden for you, bumbling around as the font of all knowledge - why don't you cool your hot head by giving it a rub in the snow.

Overdose Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 It's funny though isn't it, how he was right and all? Very light dusting over the North with the South getting the brunt of it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finaldestination Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Anyone know why there are no buses from Port Erin? I drove from a snowy road in Port Erin to Castletown this morning to take someone to catch the bus in the Square. The main roads were ok all the way to Castletown. In fact the worse bit was from Red Gap to the Square! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you go through Ballabeg and Colby? that is where the no 1 usually goes through and it was pretty bad, did nt even look like it had been gritted tbh.

nathan wind Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 The main Colby road from The Level to Port Erin doesn't seem too bad. I had a walk along it and then up over St Mary's Road and along the shore back to The Level this morning. All those roads were passable, although I did watch a massive Audi 4x4 sliding sideways down a steep estate road on the way - ridiculous vehicle.

DjDan Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Massive let down.... all this talk of snow and nothing (albeit a little in the South). Was really looking forward to a day in the snow with the boys (day = 20 mins when they've had enough). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
