Tan Hill is a great place although normally very busy.
I don't like this bit - "She might have to phone her manager to say: “I can’t come into work, sorry. It’s an act of God.”
Its the highest pub in the UK with a forecast of alot of snow.
Always worth getting a bit of intel from traffic cams.
Here’s Westmorland council page (even though Tan Hill is just across the border in N Yorkshire IIRC):
Weather cameras | Westmorland and Furness Council
Weather cameras showing current road conditions across Cumbria, including the Lake District, Windermere, Keswick and Kendal.
There’s some on the A66 and one high-ish and not too far away near border with N Yorks at A684 Garsdale Head:
Weather cameras | Westmorland and Furness Council

Tan Hill will be like that but worse at the mo I would assume!
Depends on forecast. I would imagine all cleared by Wed though and just icy… hope you’re not on summer tyres! ;-)
PS here’s the N Yorks council cams page (but nothing closer than the Westmorland one I linked above - nearest is at Ribblehead but still further away than Grsdale Head!)):

PPS their FB notes they are snowed in (which fits my “like that but worse” point above!)
I would imagine snowploughs and gritters will get to them today (or tomorrow latest once all A and B roads throughly dealt with) though!?
