So Comes Snow !


Forecasters predict that much of the North Shire will see the first snowfalls of winter by Thursday next week with flurries reaching the high hills in the South – and there may even be a dusting in Hobbiton.
The big chill could set in for weeks, markets anticipate a surge in sales of winter goods with extra stocks of shovels , scarves, hats, and gloves, as well as winter cloaks. Hobbits of the Shire are giving the finishing touches to the food stocks in the pantries, getting ready for a long, hard winter.

Counties all over Breeland and the Shire, including the North Farthing, Northern Bree-fields, and as far as Trestlebridge and the North Downs, are ensuring they have extra workers ready to keep roads clear and the mountain passes open.
The road to the holiday town of Winter-home is expected to be open in just under two weeks, ready to welcome visitors, Mayor Wiston Goodnough said "We will be ready as always to welcome our guests and provide the traditional Wintry-fun that one can find only in Frostbluff !"
As Breeland and the Shire are braced for the cold, Graeme Tenderlarch, Mayor of Bree. warned: "This is where it all begins in terms of a long hard winter, but we are ready !"
