Snow!

Here morning was a little snow, but gone quickly. Now raining.
Tomorrow forecast: freezing rain at early morning brrr The winter is coming.

I always wonder about the Internet: You read forums, and you will get global weather forecast.
The "local time" and time zones are another wonder, when you read, write, buy on the net.

Now stuck 225km from home with no routes to the north (and home) open. Still, it's a day off work I suppose.

If I could get out of the village, I couldn't get to Perth. If I could get to Perth, I couldn't get past Forfar. Happy, happy, joy, joy!

Praise the lord and pass the grits

Never had grits. I don't even know what they are made from.

Nah we got such overcooked bacon it resembled gravel. :(

Can't get out of the village.

See those trees in the background? See the igloo with wheels in the foreground?

Took two hours (and 5 people pushing) to get the igloo from the trees to this side of the road.

Don't even think about getting a Rover 75 for use where there is snow.

It is still snowing hard. Not getting home today I think.

It' cold in London, we cannot turn on the central heating right now because of the high prices.

But i'm lucky that i'm not living where you are Don.

Sorry but here where I live (canary islands) we are at 25ºC, and the sun shines..........

The sun is shining here too.

But

Most od Scotland is at -2oC and it is snowing.

Again.

The temperature in the house is 16.5C

I think that I am going to die without seeing and touching the snow in my life.

I never have seen it (except in the movies), I never have touched it.......

Where I live only had snow about a few times in my life, a little bit of snow in the highest part of the island only once each 5 years or so

I'd send you some, but it'd be hot water by the time it got to you ;)

You lucky bastards...who lives in 25-30 C in winter

Here is -1C, morning was -5C.

Yesterday, morning was 10cm snow. It rained in the afternoon, freezing rain fell in the evening...
Becouse yesterday was not enough cold, the snow sticks on the trees. Some tree fallen on the catenary. We had no electricity for 6 hours. But, "We love it here!" like Walter in Jeff Dunham show.
Here from 7:50

It's a bit cold today here. Probably as cold as it will get all week...

Beginning of Brazilian summer, midday, outside temp is +25 ºC...

I don't even have central heating. No one here bothers. We worry about big windows and air conditioning. Local notion of extreme cold is +9 ºC....

I like this - all the different climates happening at the same time....

I've lived in a place where 18 degrees caused me to shiver. Expected temperature here tonight is -6 but in some places -20.

The record here is -27.2oC about 30yr ago. The highest ever recorded was 32.9 in 2003. I don't think I have ever experienced 30 in Scotland.

Last time I was in Madrid (April 2004), everyone seemed to be wearing all the clothes they owned. Me I was wandering around in shorts and a T-shirt.

Some pictures from yesterday: 1, 2, 3.

It's cold in Hungray but the women are Hot

The "official" record here is -35,0 °C in 1940.02.16.. The highest ever recorded was 41,9 °C in 2007.07.20. (Hungary)

Extreme values.... Since, i remember, i experienced the average temperature in summer 25-32, and in winter 1- (-20).

Wow, nice picture, I only can see this in TV, Now here in HK the temperature is around 18ºC-27ºC

It is very warm here , lol .

All those pics of snow reminds me of living in Alaska. Waking up in the morning to go to work then opening the front door to find 2-3 feet of snow and having to dig out our vehicles.

Oh what memories...... or nightmares. Surprised

wow, I just learned that where I live (winnipeg, manitoba, canada) is the coldest city in the world with a population over 600,000. we usually get a stretch averaging -30c with windchills well into -40c range. luckily that is a month or so away.

So far in the past 2 weeks we have gotten around almost 50cm of snow which is sitting at record levels (and i love it:D)
