What do you keep in your vehicle for snowy weather?
driftwood:
keep some money/change on board ( in a safe place), you cant always rely on a mobile phone, and you could ( if close enough ) get to a local shop if walkable.
good selection of fuses,
good torch,
i also keep a small camping stove on bord too.

Your right, I used to live in Cambridge and a few years ago there was an accident on the A14 in the snow which brought the city to gridlock, everyone was trying to phone home, and you could get a signal, but the network was 'full' and you couldn't make a call for love nor money.
:wink:

Turn the intake on the snorkle to face away from the wind. Dont want to find the intake blocked in the morning!!
