Help, need route/traffic advice

[big_treacle]

Can anyone give me any news on the state of any of the following (loads of) roads?

j16 m6, m42, m40, a34(newbury bypass), m3 to m27, a31(across new forest)
or
j16 m6, m5 & roads from bristol - dorset

I have to drive from stoke on trent(grim north) to Dorrrrrrrzet(beautiful south) this evening, can't get hold of any good traffic reports & don't want to be stuck in any big snow drifts or jams all night

Cheers

Contrary to popular belief, the whole country isn't snowed under, just the south east. All the news studios are in the south east though.
Birmingham and southwards thereof is snowfree, and bathed in sunshine were it not nighttime.

Now then, big treacle...........grim north is it?

If you spend a bit more time up there in the centre of the universe, you won't need a nancy boy attitude towards a bit of snow.

So there...............HA
