Snow!!!!!!!

[Duke Malcolm]

There I was, just having come out of my Physics classroom, walking aimlessly to the place where I and my friends stand about during interval, when the rain started. Or so I thought...
On closer inspection, it was moving oddly, white, and not rain. Then, it dawned on me...

It was the First Snow of the Winter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was a short flurry, but the snow started again at lunch for an hour or so! And I have been singing Let it Snow and White Christmas ever since!

Hopefully more snow tonight and tomorrow, but we shan't have the schools closed, since the Director of Education is stingy and only closes them if the buses in the city centre have stopped...

snow what is this?

snow what is this?

snow is the divine gift of the gods given to all those worthy of its glory, and its white.

I dont get it it cant be that great

[Fragony]

Looks like it is going to hit us as well tonight. We had a rediculously wonderfull fall, 26 degrees in early november! Winter is finally banging at our gates, and I will get depressed like I always get without sun

Nah, that was something else

[BDC]

Just rain here. Except for a small, rapidly melting, drift outside my front door, bizzarely.

Damn my freezing house!

Snow is beautiful in small doses, but a major pain in the arse if you are responsible for keeping your driveways and homes clear of it, or if you are relegated to public transportation, cycling, and lots of walking (i.e. you choose not to drive). I grew up in Sacramento, where I can only remember it snowing enough to make a (feeble) snowman once in my entire life. I spent last winter in Reno, and experienced one of that town's nastier snowbound winters. Man, I did NOT enjoy it; frankly, it SUCKED. Now in New Jersey, I'm bracing myself, as I've been told it snows here a lot in winter also. At least here there will be one other able-bodied man who can help keep the driveway and homestead clear of it. The wife has plenty to do inside, and the kids are all under age six and won't be of any use.

I will be happier when I can relocate to a place where snow isn't so prevalent in winter time. I'll be content to visit pretty winter wonderlands when I choose to, and then go home to a warmer, dryer environment.

White powder! I love the stuff!

I like snow too.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Got a couple inches here in mass, awesome.

I always thought shoveling the driveway was kinda fun

[Duke Malcolm]

I can't say that I have ever experienced the joy (or otherwise) of shovelling my driveway, since Dundee City Council provides large Grit boxes at the end of most streets for people to go and take some grit from for pavements, roads, driveways, et cetera.

The snow just disappeared from here for a few days ago.

Most local councils are courteous enough to do that. There's one about 100 meters from my house, and more than a dozen scattered throughout the village. Anyway, the snow completely missed inland parts of the country, and only hit the coast. I guess i'm going to have to wait till early January for the snow, as usual.

lol, the isle of man hardly ever gets snow, about one day a year, but tomorrow looks like its gonna be that day :)
Seriously, a centimeter of snow falls and the whole island stops, its great!

[edyzmedieval]

I got snow last week....

Man, I love snow....

[Dutch_guy]

Love snow !

Too bad it leaves a mess when it melts...

[ShadesWolf]

South of the border we have nothing yet.
and probably wont get much either, even though I hope

[King Henry V]

It began to snow earlier on during biology class, but only tiny little crystals which melted as soon as they hit the ground. There is meant to be snow tonight, but the wind has blown the sky clear of cloud.
The heating still doesn't bloody well work, so I have built a fire in readiness for tomorrow.

Sun? Tell me more about this unknown entity.

Same here. It has even rained the entire day

[Ottos]

We don't have much snow here, at least not in this early months of winter. Just a bit in januar, februar I think... Quite a pity. Though I do go on ski holidays sometimes.

[UglyandHasty]

I had snow on my lawn for almost 2 weeks now. Its now snowing, we expect a mere 25 cm. Cant wait to go home and "borrow" dad snowmobile !

[GoreBag]

We had our first considerable snowfall last night. It'd been snowing very lightly before then, the kind where you can only see it fall in the headlights of a car passing by. I'm glad it's finally here.

[Sjakihata]

First snow happend in Denmark a 10 days back. But where I live we just had first snow today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11!11111!!!!!!11!111!11!

No snow here as of yet, although I got its smell a couple of times. (Don't believe the TV, where they call Istanbul have nothing to do with her, being pseudo-satellites kilometres away.) Last year this time everywhere was white.

Snow in Edinburgh today. Turned up at a lecture completely covered in white.

[LeftEyeNine]

Izmir rarely gets a snowfall. It was once in 2001 -after around 30 years time- a hard snowfall that screwed whole city's transportation network. I was barely able to go back to my home city Aydin which was only 1 hour away.

The snow itself - well I like it very much when it rains or snows.

[Byzantine Prince]

We haven't even had cold yet.

[King Henry V]

Well it did actually snow here last, leaving a thick white blanket which covered the fields, the roads and the rooftops. But it's a sunny day, with clear blue skies, so the snow is melting rather quickly. But it was quite a beautiful site seeing a mountain (the Saleve, an ancient, quite low mountain, but still very impressive because of it's more like a huge cliff) outside of Geneva covered in snow with the yellow light of the sun shining on it.

[Geoffrey S]

It snowed briefly today. Apart from that I got soaked and damn near blown off my bike whilst cycling to and from school. On the plus side, the wind was so strong I hardly had to peddle when going to school.

[Uesugi Kenshin]

It has stopped snowing here in Vermont, but we still have a few inches. Unfortunately that's not nearly enough to get us out of school.
