Heavy snowfalls over night throughout Kent with another 10cm to 15cm to of snow. More snow is expected this morning with another 10cm probable generally and temperatures will remain below freezing in the brisk easterly wind. Worst affected will be Medway towns, Dartford and Gravesham. It should become drier this afternoon and into tonight. Snow should peter out this evening but it will be cloudy and very cold tonight with lows down to -8 deg. C. expected so ice will be the main problem. Milder towards the weekend.
There is severe disruption on the roads despite using all resources available to us overnight. We have worked all through the night running all of gritters on the primary routes continuously. It is unlikely that we will work on the secondary routes today. All roads in west Kent are white with snow and many minor roads are impassable. Ploughs have been fitted to almost all gritters and we are battling 24/7 to keep Kent moving. The drivers are working 12 hour shifts so that the gritters are constantly working. Everything possible that can be done is being done.
Operation stack remains in place.
