Swindon here as well, all gone now my dad said that the local weather said we might get 10cm on Tuesday, but looking at the forecasts it looks like we might not.
It's snowing
- Thread starter VFR_KID
- Start date
same here just a light dusting.
Why has the snow bypassed Kent
a lot of people think i'm from Kent,whenever I walk past I hear them mutter it under their breath.
Light dusting in Worcs this morning,snowed for about an hour around 5ish.
For those of you complaining because the walk or whatever you cleared of snow is now covered again because of fresh snowfall should get used to it if the winter holds out like this. You should really fit 2 daily snow clearing sessions into your day to keep on top of it...

Check out the video on this page, wait for the guy sliding at the end. Thats why we suck, we don't know how to drive, he clearly goes on the brakes way too hard, pump them!

Essentially this is the issue. There are already too many people driving who REALLY shouldn't be, and this increases every year. Unfortunately this leads to said morons having accidents when it does as little as rain, let alone snow and ice.
We got hit reasonably hard up here last night (though looking at pastymuncher's pics, we were no where near hardest hit last night!) and on my drive home from a friends I lost count of the number of people driving with their fog lights on... which essentially says it all. To be honest, a little natural selection won't go a miss
.I'm afraid I also must point out that it's "brakes"

Blame my iPod!
Oh well, fun to see you guys having lots of snow; but the Montana winter I'm experiencing is on another level to be honest
Snow is OK and nothing to panic about.
Snow is a seasonal thing and - if all goes well with the world - comes around every 12 months or so.
Snow appears in the wintertime We are now in wintertime.
Hence we have snow.
My cat loves it - he's seen it at least two or three times before but treats it like a real novelty and gets a bit silly.

Technically, it's still autumn
From the web - and I always thought this...
In the United Kingdom and Ireland the winter solstice is traditionally considered as midwinter, the winter season beginning November 1 on All Hallows or Samhain. Winter ends and spring begins on Imbolc or Candlemas, which is February 1 or 2. This system of seasons is based on the length of days exclusively. The three-month period of the shortest days and weakest solar radiation occurs during November, December and January in the Northern Hemisphere (May-July in the Southern).
Thermal lag though means February is colder than November. Wiki says winter is November - January and spring is March - May.
Poor old February, totally forgotten about.
Edit: wiki also says Autumn is September - November, go figure
