Don't know about that. I live less than 5 miles away and at 9am this morning the snow was very heavy, pretty much white-out conditions as the gritters etc hadn't made it up here at that point.
If it had of carried on that way you would be looking at a real safety problem. Both for Motherwell fans and the away fans, especially considering its forecast to get worse this evening.
All the talk of tesco and the cinema still being open is fine, but lets not forget both the police and traffic scotland are advising against all but essential travel, arriva have taken their fleet of buses off the road and Edinburgh airport is shut!
Can the country cope? - blatantly not, but lets not pretend that only football fans feel the pain!
PS - Two lanes currently closed on the M8 due to a jack knifed lorry!
