The only time my garden looks as nice as everyone else's.
Yes i love snow but snow is rubbish in towns.Its far better if you are in the countryside or live next to woods or something like that to appreciate the beauty of it.

There is always a plus and a minus side but they seem to manage alright in places like Canada and Switzerland and Austria.
Where they have snowmobiles and skis and various other equipment to deal with snow handy because they're used to it.

Well that much is very true.
And to make matters worse here the killjoys from the council spread salt and grit everywhere which ruins it .

yea I hate that pluses if it gets realy cold at night all that melted snow frezses and then becomes ice shich cars slip on.
i did love it til i went flying after christmas and fractured my elbow which has resulted in several weeks off work...hang on....i love snow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
I do a bit of running in the mornings and snow can be an enemy, therefore. Esepcially when it freezes over and becomes ice.
But, when you're inside, and it's warm, and you're looking out the window at blankets of snow lying on the ground, it can be quite magical.
Did anyone actually get any snow either overnight or this morning ?
There is none here whatsoever.
Woke up in the night, it was snowing. There was even a little in shady spots come early morning, but even that was gone by 10:30am.
Personally I'd rather live in a town with stuff than in the country with nothing and liable to be trapped should the weather decide to go nuts.
Snow is great! Brings out the kid in me.
When we had the big snowfall there a few weeks ago, I was out in the garden trying to unearth the car and I just couldn't stop laughing. There was just so damn much snow!!! It was the heaviest snowfall since 1984 or something and I don't even really remember what it was like then, so this was great. And making a snow robot with the kids was great fun.
Yes, please, send more snow!
Snowed here this morning in..err...snowy Kent.
We got about ten inches here(ooo-err missus).
Well we Croydonians didn't get any of "the white stuff." Sulk

Thats exactly how i feel after finding out Hastings and Eastbourne got it all yet there was none in Brighton .I really am envious of them .
I bet there is lots of sledging going on in the horses field next to the woods i lived next to as it was a very steep embankment that is perfect for it.I have lots of happy memories of it because it was quite a strong community where you knew everyone and everyone would be sledging in that field.Another road quite close to where i used to live was mentioned in local news for being impassable with several abandoned cars littering it because of ice.
At 41 yrs of age i am still excited over snow.
I both love and hate snow.
Hate because as a cable installer I work outside and its fucking freezing and hazardous.
Love because I have a great time with the kids and I was a keen Skier in my youth.

There's been none in Belfast since xmas-ish, as I recall...
Freeze the bollocks off you, mind.
Here's a bit of snow in Norway, now I don't know if you'll be able to see me standing in front of my vehicle as we did camouflage it and ourselves very well.

Your the thin orange pole stuck in the ground.

Damn I can't believe you spotted me that easily. It must be your military training vzzbux ;)
Well, when we were shooting arrows, we were being pelted with very fine hailstones...
Lost all feeling in my fingers...

Snowing again in north London.
That's what Global Cooling will do for you, more snow!
Bit of snow in South London now too. Not enough to be any fun though....
It's just drifting slowly in tiny little flakes. Nothing settling, not even enough to cover your coat as you walk along either, really. So sad.
we have rain upt'north which is preferable to the white stuff but not when its half term and it was nice all last week. :-*
