I just drove a few miles to the local shop as a test run, roads are slushy but drivable but worst thing was the strong wind which is causing the snow to drift.

Trent Canary 0 Posted January 9, 2010 No evidence, but anytime ive ever driven when its been snowing, once you get onto the main roads there are no problems. (Assuming you drive safely). If you can make it out of your driveway and street with no problems then the A47 should not be an issue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Might stay in the warm today and listen to the radio although I hate giving in and not being there.Enjoy the game everyone. [:)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Largey 0 Posted January 9, 2010 Roads from surrounding Norwich going towards the ground should be much improved today, I cant see much sign of snowfall during the night and the shopping traffic should have removed most of that now.Take it steady and leave a half hour earlier, it wont do anyone any harm.

jeagle 0 Posted January 9, 2010 I came back from the casino in Yarmouth to Norwich City centre at about 3am last night and the roads were driveable but slushy and we were in a rear wheel drive Merc. It can be done, you just have to be careful and its probably best to stick to the left lane. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
