I see on BBC News that the army has been alerted!!

Garry,

I have not heard that ! The only time I had actually witnessed that was in 1987, when we had a week of really heavy snow, then the wind got up and blowing it in to enormous drifts. I was working for the Army at the time and was tasked to snow clear with an International dozer, unfortunately, it did not have a cab !!
While doing this a Chinook landed in front of me to offload a team of ambulance crews to man Land Rover ambulances in the area.
