It’s looking impassable at the moment from Hebden to Heptonstall unless you have a 4×4.

Make sure to knock on the door of those elderly are in need of help. 😀👍🏻

 Road up Colden is bad and buses now cancelled up here.

Buses from Halifax -Rochdale and Burnley now terminated too.

 Heptonstall Road is a death trap this morning-! Can’t even see a gritter getting up there  Its covered in drifts all the way down. Not looking good on the hill – except for skiing

Home now, been out cat sitting on foot, all kitties fed & cosy! 🐾😺

 If anyone has an elderly or vulnerable person who lives In Millbank they would like me to check on just ask…. I have walking boots & lots of free time, can’t do shopping as roads cut off & no shops but I’ve got a some bits if needed xx ️🌨⛄️

My wife’s done nothing but stare through the window since the snow started, if it gets any heavier I might have to let her in😍
