    Default The weather.

    The weather is outside is frightful, but the fire is so delightful, since we've no place to go, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

    So, what's the weather like right now for all you .Organisms? For the last 2 and a half hours we've had constant snow here in Yorkshire, which has occasionally become a blizzard. It's about a foot deep. Looking outside now, it's going through a 5 minute spurt of being a blizzard, going nearly vertical. My other window, the big ceiling window is covered in snow and i can't see anything out of it.

    So, what's the weather like for you? Include detailed descriptions, and if possible, pictures from the nearest window, or alternatively, where you sitting as you type.

    EDIT: Included a link for the picture, rather than show the actual picture, as it was apparently warping the size of the page.

    It's nice and sunny in Bradford. Cracking the flags. You soft southerners.....
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    We had a very strange wintry mix in Michigan yesterday. It started the night before with a light freezing mist, which went to freezing rain, which went to snow, which then, for a few minutes, turned into tiny falling snowballs that were about a half-centimeter in diameter. It thawed out later in the day.

    Yup. It's nice today though, 34 and sunny.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Well here it is very cold, but that is mainly due to the wind. I have no idea what the temp is, but earlier when I walked to the Vet's Home it was cold enough to make my face and ears feel like needles were slamming into them all across, so pretty cold, but not cold enough (without wind) to freeze snot so I'd guess not below zero (F).

    We have similar weather in Germany. My girlfriend went to work this morning, leaving in a snow-chaos, drove only 20 min but where she arrived there wasn't any snow at all. At home the snowing stopped at noon and thawed in less than an hour. 3 hours later it started again, even hailed and now the ground is covered again.

    It was raining today. I don't mind it, I just don't like the cold when I'm under dressed.

    Soft Southener!? I'm only 7 miles from Huddersfield, probably twenty miles from you. Obviously there's a great difference in weather.

    Its been great.

    Loads of snow, though it does not stick much. We don't normally get much snow in Liverpool because we are next to the sea.

    Right now it is a bit cool and there is still some snow around. It is too dark to take pictures as there are only two street lights near my window then a big dark field.
