Guess I'm not the only one... (winter weather)

Crazy. Apparently y'all across the pond are getting slammed too.

Where Green Fairy and I are, it's been really cold, and snowy. I'm guessing about half a foot of snow, easy, yesterday and today combined. It looked like a snow globe... and driving? Yeah... I almost killed myself just getting out of my very, very tiny parking lot, then, thankfully, my bf said he didn't have to go into work to shovel the place out. Blerg.
How's the weather where you're at?

I have heard complaints from my British, Belgian, Romanian, Polish, Croatian and Danish Eve Online corpmates. The Norwegian is calling them all wusses and the one Finn was making obscure finnish jokes.

I don't blame 2 of the Brits and the Dane, they all have injuries [one has back injury and the other 2 have knee injuries] and I know how this weather makes my joints ache. One Brit just had orthoscopic surgery on his knee so the damage is quite fresh so he has the added problem of gimping around in the yucky snow. Nothing like a fresh injury to screw with ones balance.

They are all hoping it is not going to be as bad as that blizzard that covered Britain last time this winter.

I really need to see if I can find the photos I have from one winter where Lake Ontario was frozen solid for half a mile out from my house on the shore, and the 9 foot snowdrifts.

Still snowing in the UK, my side of the country apparently isn't as badly affected as the eastern side, but its colder than we're used to.

I am on the eastern side and I have NEVER seen the snow so deep. Normally we only get a few inches of snow at a time, but at the moment its more like three feet of snow! School has been cancelled, and I am currently on my fourth snow day Although I should really go out soon, I am running out of food.

CRML, if they close school, do you still get paid for that day or are you left out in the cold so to speak?

"How's the weather where you're at? "

Hi, came across the website by accident 2 weeks ago and has been hooked since. I love reading the stories and some of them are so hilarious.

Anyway, i live in the far east where it is supposed to be sunny all year round. However, it is the monsoon season now so there has been a lot of rain. But i don't mind rain as it's cool and comfortable. To be honest, i don't really like it when it's sunny as it gets all hot and sticky.

Crap. Tons of snow; and I couldn't get to work. Buses are not running, trains are not running, taxis are not running. It's bedlam.

[Frantic Freddie]

I wish we'd get some snow,but since it's a La Niña year we won't get much,if any.

I still get paid, thankfully. I think I jinxed everything by mentioning it on here, because I just got a call telling me that the school will reopen tomorrow!

this week has been better in the Pacific Northwest (Seattle area) *knock on every piece of wood close to me*

Last week SUCKED. down in the teens, snow, ice and a windstorm that knocked out power for most of the area. Lost ours Monday night didn't get it back until Wednesday afternoon.

Now the weather guessers (otherwise know has monkey's flinging poo since they can never get it right) are saying the models look like 1955 where the area got 60" of snow. Not a happy camper with that news.
