 M6 closure - Bobby
Cheers guys - as I was leaving I checked google maps to compare it to the BMW sat nav (always a wise thing to do) and noticed no diversion showing. After a quick check on twitter I saw that it had reopened so straight forward journey home.

One interesting part was around Lesmahagow. Sky had been relatively blue most of the way and temp was anything between 6-8 degrees. I noticed the sky suddenly got very heavy and within the space of about 3 miles, temperature had dropped to 1 degree, initially hail then snow came down but then cleared again within a mile or so.

Often hear of weather related accidents in this area but this is the first chance I have exerienced the drastic changes within such a short distance.
