Snow

[Prince Winter Flurry]

It snowed here today and I love the snow.

[crossmirage]

I live in a tropical climate, I can never have snow :<

[LORD M]

I live in Sweden, almost in the center, no snow yet... :(

[tobbA]

Yeah. Where's the snow? I want my money back...

[Peter Coene]

We've been getting snow on and off for the last couple months here. Unfortunately it all melts off every time. Actually, I hope it is, because I've gotta go pick up my Vespa from the shop today.

[Slash]

Oslo, Norway here, its been snowing for a while, then melting away. This time it seems to be here to stay tho. I chuckle at everyone in a car these days. especially when they take their cars to go shopping 1 kilometer away, then get stuck on the way home while i WALK past them.. :P

[Eccentric]

Houston! We got our snow day which comes about once every four years. :D

[Dile_]

it did snow about 40 miles north of you just the other day tobbA :) went away pretty quickly though.. but my guess is that you'll get some of that juicey white stuff that you like so much before christmas! :]

[Krato]

snow is fun until you get your license.

[Psychotime]

I miss Clam Chowder County.

[Enydimon]

South Western Ontario here. No snow atm which is a bummer.

Some people get depressed during the winter or SAD(seasonal affective disorder.) I have the reverse of that. Go figure.

[Ahnem Mee]

Belgium reporting.
No snow here yet. Lots of rain though, and hailstones last week.

That said, there isn't as much snow in winter anymore as when I used to be little. I even wonder if the toystores still sell sledges...

I miss snow.

[Prince Winter Flurry]

Maybe you will get a lots of snow there.

[AsaB]

It started to snow last week over here, in the capital. It doesn't go for the entire country, which is often drowning in snow, but snow comes quite late for Reykjavík. It starts a bit in November or December, but it's really not until January when it becomes firmly grounded! I have to add that it's a somewhat recent thing, when I was a toddler some 10-15 years ago it came much sooner and was heavier. Climate changes or something?

I do love the snow, though :D It's cozy!

[Jabo]

Center of Germany here. No snow yet, but I had to go through the thickest fog ever when I was driving home from my parent's place two days ago. Oh yeah, and it's cold here.

[LuckyDevil]

I've never seen snow in real life, only in images and T.V. I so want to see and feel snow!!
maybe i'll move higher north one day, cause god knows i hate the heat.

[Linkenlog]

I got snow over here in Texas at the beginning of the month. It was so awesome but it all melted by the time I drove to Uni. :(

[vineris]

We got a snowstorm on Friday/Saturday. It's always funny because bus schedules go completely random and there's always some idiot who shows up at the bus stop completely underdressed and then asks people when the bus is going to show up. Well kid, there's five inches of snow on the road. Go home and get a hat, because you might have to walk to wherever you're going.

Also ended up having to drive later and managed to get stuck in the snow within a block of our house. Good times!

[Flakari Leader]

I can't wait until I get out of California and back to Wisconsin for the winter. Love me some snow. :D

[Muz]

it snowed here last night ...


>_>... i wish, I'm sweating my balls off here. God damn you interceptor going back to canada and leaving us to suffer.

[nofu]

We had snow in October. Briefly. Since then it has been remarkably stably the same: around +5 degrees Celsius, little to no wind, very humid and foggy but yet never quite raining (although the ground is always wet) The worst kind of weather imo.

[BlightedArt]

It hasn't snowed for me for years, but when it does, its usually the biggest dump of snow ever... Like 1,000,000 people ran around the night before spraying whipped cream everywhere non-stop.


... o_O Just like that.

[ZenzybaR]

i think it snows around Jan-Feb here. It was immense this year. I sprained my ankle cause i couldn't see the edge of the pavement when chasing my friends.

[Ahnem Mee]

You know what I like?

Going on a hike in Switzerland at summercamp and trudging through the everlasting snow in your short shorts.

And then some rucksack-sleighing down the hill, yeah!

I thought snow in winter always made me giddy. Snow in summer is even better!

[Jazz]

Here in Nova Scotia we see snow at the oddest times sometimes. Like May, June, etc. :P So we saw a bit since October as well. Not enough for my liking. I want MORE snow!! >_< Not TOO much more like "White Juan" some years back but more!

[Jovian M]

Too snowy, here. Almost died today because of snow (and a bad driving 16 year old with a pick-up truck). Awful.

[loveandasandwich]

We took our pup out into her first snowfall... she went nuts for it!
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b269/loveandasandwich/001.jpg
It snowed a lot more after that, a few inches outside now. I was really excited about the snow until the next day when we had to go somewhere & scrape the car. :C

[SalOnimaruRem]

Minnesota reporting in, hmm.. some light shower of snow on and off these few days,
Some part melts some dont, but fuck its cold at night plus the wind too...OMG!
I am waiting for the winter storm to kick in so i can enjoy the winter days :)

[Two Listen]

Iowa. It snowed. And is expected to snow a lot more tonight, a lot more. And I am pissed.

Because I just very, very recently learned how to drive the manual transmission on my car. And there are hills. You wouldn't expect hills to be a problem in Iowa, but it doesn't take mountainous hills to annoy the living piss out of me.

I need to find a better way to work.

I love snow. I really enjoy snow, the look of it, the feel of it, the mood it gives everything. But as with most things in this world, people ruin it with their streets and their cars and their...computers...and...digital...

Shit.

[jcpahl]

I'm in Colorado, on the western slope of the Rockies, and we got almost a foot of snow here last night, more than I've seen in the 9 years I've lived here.

It's gorgeous and I am pleased.

[AsaB]

Well, it sure got snowy here last year :P

[Prince Winter Flurry]

Those are beautiful snow pictures and thank you for sharing.

[darkwolf29a]

It just started snowing here about an hour ago. So far, it's little dusty flakes. Of course, they have sent out a winter storm advisory for this afternoon/evening.

Me??? I love the snow, for now. I'll like it until about February or so. Then...I'll have had enough. But, for now...It's all good...And, at least, it feels like winter now.

I Love winter. :)

[Parsakoira]

Yep, had our first snowballfight today in finland! \o/

[Ilaekae]

South west Pennsylvania: One snow day couple of days ago, only about 1/2" on ground...otherwise...nada...

[GoGoJojo]

It's cold enough to snow here, but of all times, it had to be a clear blue day in Portland.
@Two Listen: you ever seen that video of people driving in the snow here? Trust me, you won't do as bad as them.

[velderia]

I love snow but I also hate inadequate heating.

[Enydimon]

It just started snowing where I am! WOOHOO! :D

[IanE]

Brazil reporting in: SUMMER. rainrainrainrainrainrainrainrainrainrain

Austin, TX reporting in: Snowed last week for a whole 8 minutes. More impressed with the epic fog that's going on, to be honest. Can't see the street lights above you.

[ReggieFran]

I live in Atlanta it doesn't really snow here. Good thing too, I hate the cold. I start shivering when it is under 50 degrees. Sad but true. Whenever we get the slightest bit of snow we close down everything. Really.

[Farvus]

No snow here yet but it's veeery close....

[Choob]

It started snowing last week. :)

...but turned to rain after 10 minutes.

Inevitable I suppose. Damn the Scottish climate.

[t y l e r]

Yeah, we got over a foot here in Des Moines this week...with 40 mph gusts of wind the following day. Boo!

[ryukin]

Greetings.
ryukin, here.
It hasn't snowed in my little corner of the Pacific Northwest, YET. :x
But when it comes, scary times, scary times indeed. Not because of the snow, though it was ridiculous last year, but because my family hates the snow. Me, I love winter and everything that comes with it (except maybe sesonal depression) but maybe that's because I've neglected to get my driver's license yet. When I eventually learn, I will curse the snow with them.
But for now, yeah snow! :D

edit: ...well it snowed now...

[nofu]

F-ff--ff-freezing. Actually very little snow, only about 2 cm or so, but it's -15C and dropping. The worst part is this shit goes on till Feb.

[Serpian]

We woke up yesterday to -17 centigrade. There's not a massive amount of snow, but it is snowing right now. I hope it will not snow too much this week, then I will be able to go skate in the Finnish archipelago this weekend!

[Wiggles]

A week ago snow was seen through out much of Texas, and way earlier than ever before in many places. Earliest I've ever seen snow was New Year's Eve but this was about a full month before. It was amazing!!

In other news, it's snowing in Copenhagen and snowed in Victoria, Australia.

-Wiggs

[LORD M]

Yay! Yesterday I woke up to +3 degrees Celsius and no snow at all, but today I woke up to -5 degrees and 20 cm of snow! :D

[Ahnem Mee]

First snow!

Turnhout, Belgium.

Tiny flakes but it's been comming steadily all day now, so when at first it looked like my town had been sprinkled with sugar like a waffle, now I can already hear my footsteps make those satisfying crunching noises.

I'm loving it! Going to celebrate with hot milk and chocolate truffles this evening... mmm-mmm!

[alesoun]

We have snow here AAAANNNDDD the Round Table Santa has been round on his sleigh when it was snowing. Could I get a decent photo? Hell, no.....

[Zapp!]

Hooray!! Snow!! Got home from school today and found out that the lock on my front door had frozen, before spending about 10 mins desperately trying to make it unfreeze before I gave up and went to my friends house.
But during that time my street had gone from no snow at all to a layer about an inch or two deep and I had been too busy to notice. I heard its supposed to be very snowy over the weekend. Hopefully there will be lots in Glenshee or Cairngorms

Edit: alesoun, where do you live that Santa actually has a sleigh? where I live hes been put in an empty shop that no one was using. It looks so boring

[Slothboy3000]

No snow here, just rain and freezing wind as always. Turns out my dad probably will only be able to make it on Christmas Eve due to snow aswell. Ah well, better late than never I suppose!

[alesoun]

I'm in Fife, Zapp! Santa wouldn't DARE not visit!

Edit: ever seen a sleigh left on four bricks? ;)

[Dave_]

Holland here, finally snow, i fucking LOVE snow. And its here :D.

My dad lives near Fife, it's very nice there. I'm sure Santa looks forward to going there.

And I've never even seen a sleigh

[ArtZealot]

Ok, enough talking about snow, lets see some more pictures!

[Kiera]

Netherlands are under a thick fat snowblanket.. still got aching muscles from throwing snowballs in other people's faces all day long

I went out to buy some groceries today and ended up doing a prat-fall on an icy pavement. No way I'm putting up pics!

This was a couple days ago, now the snow has turned to ice and you can walk on top of it D: It's gonna be under 30 deg F all week noooooo

[Sepulverture]

snow is fun until you get your license.


Then it's super fun.

[Jazz]

Ooooh, that icy-topped snow is crazy!! O_O I love when I'm on a hill and just...move. It does the rest. :D :D :D So scary!

Awwww, I want more snow! Then it can stop while my best bud is making way over here next week; then it can start up again!

[Baron Impossible]

This was the view from my living room window at 2am. Further down the road a vampire, a cowboy and a sea captain were having a snowball fight (no pics of that, though). It rarely snows here so this is probably all we'll get this winter.

And this morning the snow clouds were all snowy and smeary

http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/1314/snow2w.jpg

[B u r l]

The snow is like 5 inches thick here. I haven't seen snow like this in England in years.

[Baron Impossible]

We get virtually no snow any more. I grew up in a little village on the Yorkshire moors and it was common for the snow to be 2 or 3 feet+ with drifts of 10 - 20 feet, and the plows used to pile the snow 12ft high at the sides of the roads. Snow covered the ground for at least 10 weeks of the year. Now it's headline news when there's a few inches, like a national emergency or something. The very same place I lived was on the news last night - 16cm. 16 cm!? That's frost, not snow.

[Zapp!]

Still snowing where I live. There's supposed to be more everyday here until thursday. And since I can't remember the last time there was the much snow here I took some pictures of it.

[AsaB]

Not a single flake of snow has been here for weeks. Not fair :(

The rest of the country has plenty, but us poor capital people are always left out for Christmas!

[Falchion]

Foot of snow outside. Pain. Agony. Time to fetch the flamethrower!

[Nrx]

snooooww! up to my knees!

[Prince Winter Flurry]

Those snow pictures are really pretty.

[Slothboy3000]

Finally snowed here. I stood still for about an hour. Then decided to go outside to experience it properly.

[emclelland]

I miss snow :(
I grew up in Massachusetts and moved to Los Angeles about a year ago- no snow out here! :p
Very jealous of everyone with their pretty snow pictures.

[ChristianWeeks]

I know im jealous too! No snow in coastal South Carolina :( The most I've ever seen down here wasn't even enough to accumulate on the ground at all.

[Cerasela]

Pretty snowy tonight, hopefully in 31 too

Da'ww look at all the cute widdles snows.

This is my friend trying to find his car two days ago.

This is what it looked like before the plows got to it.

[Foxtrot Wolfwhistle]

We had snow here for a week leading up to christmas. It was good but then the backroads got thick with ice and the snow turned into horrible, clumpy stuff. It melted before we got too sick of it, so that's cool ^_^

[Costau]

Just drought is all you have to worry about when living in Vegas. So nothing, at all, that is built there was built for natural disasters or extreme weather aside from heat. Roads are cheaply made, no lines just reflectors mostly on the roads, and grated high ways. Mix in a huge freak of nature where all of the valley is covered in 4 inches of snow. You got bumper cars.

Sadly the day it was best, was when I had to work. So I could only take pictures with a cell on my way there. Enjoy?

I wish I could've got some on the strip.

Cool photos, guys! :)

Well, I woke up yesterday to see glorious snow all around! Finally it caught up with us. Only fair, with the rest of the country having heaps of it (c.80-90 cm on the north coast). If only I still had an overall, I'd start making snow angels :D Or go to the tiny beach by the city that has this cozy hot tub! These people were actually swimming in the ice cold Atlantic. Sea swimming has become really popular lately...I'm not sure if it's for me :O

[nofu]

I'm... getting a bit tired of snow already. We just had a warm period for a week with a few degrees over so some of it melted and there was this slosh all over the place and now it froze again so it's hella slippery everywhere. Because of this + a lot of snow it takes me about twice as long to get around as it would normally. I also have to clean the parking lot almost every day = not fun.

Looks like I've got some work to do. Although I should wait till it stops snowing.

[Dorkthrone]

I feel like I should contribute some snow pictures. Most of my snow pictures are from a cabin I recently took a trip to in West Virginia.

[Hookswords]

There is a bush outside my house that gets a slow drip and then encased in ice. I took a break from packing and took a couple macro shots of it

[Black Spot]

Snow is pretty to look at, but hell to live with. I hate the stuff.

[Oden]

went for a snowshoe on boxing day:

In the first one, some skiers got to the top at the same time as us. Those lumps of snow are trees. :)


In the second one, Kokanee Glacier/Gray's Ridge is in the far distance, to the right.
Nelson is in the valley between the closest range of hills and the farther ranges (with their ridges perpendicular to the closer hills)

[Randis]

wow, many beautiful pics!

[nofu]

It's so cold here that it's not even funny anymore. It's painful to go outside.

[LuckyDevil]

On Saturday we had Snow Flurries for about 2 mins here in Orlando, Florida :)

[ArtZealot]

On Saturday we had Snow Flurries for about 2 mins here in Orlando, Florida :)

wtf? in florida?? i didn't know it snowed in florida.

[Slash]

Goddamn global warming! :P

There's a couple of snow shots from outside my parent's house in the WDELL thread. It's been rather chilly here this winter, with a light cover of snow.

[Katfayheirti]

It didn't really snow where I am in Florida now (but it's definitely cold enough! I had to cover all of my parent's fruit trees with blankets every night this week and pick all of the stupid oranges before they froze....*grumble grumble*) but I did get some snowy shots near my house in Baltimore before I left.
