Default Londoners - snow situation?

Please can those of you that live in/near the following areas tell me what the roads are like in the following:

clapham sw11
hampton, middlesex tw12
staines tw18
ashford, middlesex tw15
roehampton vale sw15
wimbledon sw19
walton on thames kt12

work are trying to send me to these arear tomoz, and after it taking me 10 hours to get out of croydon yesterday, i need ammo to tell them to get fucked if its unlikely that im going to be able to get there etc.

bbc weather says light show for all those areas...

cheers boys

Not much snow since last night, but the roads round my way are all icy as fuck. Traffic is piled up in some places too.

cheers madmac, ive been told ill be working around croydon all week, next week...!

looking at it, walton on thames is the furthest south, so possibly going to be the worst. as after i passed j9 northbound of the m25 last night there was no snow
