Most of Shetland is still gridlocked and strong winds are blowing snow drifts onto already impassable roads with extremely poor visibility. Many people are stuck at home unable to go to work, food shopping or anything. Some of the videos I have seen of the roads on a "Shetland Road Conditions" FB page are pretty scary! My car and others in the road are still snowed in. It seems to be getting worse. No sign of snow melting yet and no chance of getting out yet.

Police advise not to travel unless absolutely necessary:
