Weather Watch- Newcastle

[old woman]

my mates driving us up tomorrow...hopefully! is it just pretty much up the M1 all the way? anyone know what roads normally get closed during these conditions?

It's M1 A1(m) A1 pretty much all the way.

Should be well gritted. Not that much snow up here at the moment.

Should be an interesting journey tomorrow. Good luck everyone!

I'm staying at the travelodge tonight and tomorrow.

Newcastle is absolutely fine. It snowed a bit earlier but nothing now. The ground is wet and a tiny bit slushy in places. Confident game will be on now.

Anyone else on the 07.20 out of Heathrow tomorrow?

Plenty I would imagine. Unless you have bought the plane.

Coming down thick again. I think it will settle.

The Newcastle safety officer said that the game will go ahead tomorrow. He said any snow that falls will be cleared off the pitch and surrounding pavements in time for the game.

Unless you get snow Armageddon style, obviously.

Edit:



Not looking good at this rate.

[Dickie Davies]

08:30 from Kings Cross, all trains KC to Newcastle today cancelled, tomorrows schedule unaffected as of an hour ago.

Fingers crossed.

Pretty confident it's going ahead now tbh.

Driving up tomorrow morning. Should be a good trip.

The club and the council seem pretty determined to make it happen which is a good sign. Keep the faith!
