    Thats what i dont get, comparing countries that have snow all the time, like Canada, and countries that have snow 1 day a year, like the isle of man.
    You guys carry on with your normal lives, but we get an inch and not even cars are on the road
    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb...

    Slight snow this morning, but wasn't awake to see it. Far away from home for
    the last week, and won't be back for a while yet. We don't usually get anything
    too heavy until February. [Having said that, last couple of years have been
    snowed in from Christmas Eve on to the New Year.]

    Would say the novelty wears off reasonably quickly, unless you like to wrap
    yourself up in that elusive spirit of Christmas I hear about every so often.
    it's the **** that happens while you're waiting for moments that never come

    Can't remember what exactly was the day we actually had any real snow this year, but it came rather late though, in December.
    I haven't got to define it's thickness this year but it sure is groaning nicely under shoes during walking. I don't think it's really thick, but I'd believe that it ain't going anywhere any time soon as it's minus 25 celsius-degrees (-25C) out there; I think it equals to some minus 13 fahrenheit-degrees (-13F).

    The best part is that there are no bugs around.

    No snow as of yet. Not very seasonal.

    Was bloody cold today, though.

    I live in Texas, so we don't get much, but over the last few days I had been in Kansas with some relatives and it didn't snow, but I found many big piles of snow. It must have snowed in Kansas rescently

    Of course there's no snow for you folk in Wales! The snow is all on the Eastern side of the Pennines!

    Around 2 dm I think.

    Had a considerble snowfall on christmas eve, although we had quite a bit of snow even before that.

    I'll see if I can dig up a quite good photo on the snow up here, but I cannot check for it until the weekend.
    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
