Gritters out again after more heavy snowfall

Gritter crews have been out again this morning (Saturday) after further snowfall.

Parts of Shetland, particularly North Mainland and the North Isles, saw more heavy flurries yesterday afternoon and overnight. 

The SIC said that with temperatures remaining below or near freezing any thaw was likely to be slow.

Our gritter crews continue their efforts to clear roads across Shetland.

    Oh my gosh, it looks very cold!! Hope everyone is keeping warm and snug. I visited last September and love the Shetland Islands, just wish I had had more time, it’s one of my favorite places in the world. Sending love ❤️ and sunshine 🌞 from New Zealand.
