The return of the snow

Overnight the snow has returned to Lancaster, as our coldest winter for many years continues. This morning traffic around the city is very slow-moving, and many people have chosen to make journeys on foot rather than risk driving. The Cathedral is open as normal and remains unaffected, and the Cathedral School is also open, with the new term beginning today. However, many of the roads and paths in the area are fairly slippery, so be cautious if you're in the area! Elsewhere in the parish, conditions seem worse, and as a result this morning's 9am Mass at St Thomas More's was cancelled.
