SNOW!

[Dazz]

I can't believe it. I went outside like five minutes ago and it was clear blue skies and sunny. Now it's snowing so much, I can't see anything outside. It's amazing! White Christmas FTW!

:bouncy:

[nightwolf]

Meh still got sun here, I hope it stays that way, don't want them closing the snake pass..

[Ashley]

Strange as Slaggis says theres snow in Sheffield.

Anyway shut up, none here :( Although chances are if we do it'll be tomorrow morning and interrupt my train and cause chaos :p

[Daft]

I hate snow. It means I can't cycle. Last time it snowed I got hit by a car. I hate snow.

[flameboy]

It's kinda snowed on and off here but not enough to lay at all...

[or else you will DIE]

snow blows

[Happenstance]

Was just coming home and a massive blizzard hit, didnt last long at all but all the roads and fields are covered with a thin layer

[Dannyboy-the-Dane]

We've received the largest amount of snow in 10 years in Denmark just since yesterday, and I'm loving it to bits! :D I've taken pictures and recorded a video, and I'll throw them up later today.

[Shino]

It rained here. Yesterday.

[Coolness Bears]

I got caught in the hails earlier.

I don't want it to snow I want to get home! :D

[flameboy]

It's properly snowing here now...

[Mundi]

Snow? pffft so 3 weeks ago.
Now its gone and it is starting to get weirdly warm...

[nightwolf]

Strange as Slaggis says theres snow in Sheffield.

Yup ten minutes after I said that it snowed, now its snowing ridiculousy heavy, I need it to stop snowing by sunday otherwise I can't particularly get home. I'll have to figure something out.

[Shorty]

Just came through a lot of Snow not far from Sheffield, but its cleared up now. Which I'm glad of tbh since I don't want to drive home through it.

[Fierce_LiNk]

I was in the kitchen about to make myself a drink, and my brother comes in shouting It's snooooowwwwiiiing.

I went outside, and there indeed was snow. But, it was the most pathetic snow you've ever seen. There were maybe 3 drops of snow, and then five minutes later it stopped. :(

Why couldn't it be the other way around. Where it stops for 5 minutes and then carries on for the rest of the day? Maybe in some sort of parallel universe maybe.

And I just sneezed all over my monitor. This is a sad day.

[canand]

Cool it is snowing in Manchester too.

[Roostophe]

Got a bit of snow here, yep.

[Paj!]

It was hailing heavily here this morning, with a little snow inter-mixed.

[Serebii]

It snowed here too

Here

In Bournemouth

In December

It is unheard of

Global Warming my arse

[MoogleViper]

Blazing sunshine in Aber.

[EEVILMURRAY]

It kept going from grey and heavy snow to clear skies about 3 times today, as such it never really settled. Now it looks like the way it would were hail to have landed. That random pattern on the floor.

[nightwolf]

Just took my housemate to the train station, its incredibly bitter outside! I'd becareful driving down backlanes in it too, rain + cold = ice.

[Tales]

No snow, but it's about minus ten outside. Weather reports says it will be a white Christmas so hopefully it will come soon.

[Dannyboy-the-Dane]

Maybe in some sort of parallel universe maybe.
Or in Denmark.

[Nolan]

I hate snow. It means I can't cycle. Last time it snowed I got hit by a car. I hate snow.

I find riding on Ice quite dangerously fun myself.

Hasn't really snowed much here yet, but it's been frigidly cold...aside from last weekend when it was a delightful 46F.

[Raining_again]

SNOWING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It wasn't forecast 'til Sunday here! I drove home in the snow. It was just snowing and not lying.

Made my journey amazing!

[Platty]

It's snowing here in my little corner of South East London and is apparently meant to get quite bad during the night. Snow Day 2?

[danny]

Weve had a lil bit here but not a lot. Hope it dosent snow until next week after tuesday.

[Goafer]

It snowed really heavily today for about 10 minutes. It covered most things, but then it buggered off as quickly as it came. Boo.


Was quite icy this morning. I got the car a bit unintentionally (ok maybe a bit intentional) sideways. Almost went arse over tit on the way to the car and again on my way into work as well.

[uəʌəsʎɐɾ]

Sheffield had a few snow blitzes - but I was cooped up for each! I got to work for 1, then saw daylight at 4, and missed snow. Then next saw the outside at 7 and had missed another round of snow!

Fucking cold though.

[Jimbob]

We had some snow this end as well, not much as it blew over quick.

I'm not fussed to be fair, when i lived out in Germany we had the proper stuff. Not this flimsy stuff that is always wet and slippy. At least the stuff in Germany was dry and excellent to walk upon.

[MoogleViper]

Am I the only one who didn't get snow?

(No I can't be arsed to check the whole thread.)

[canand]

is anyone puting up images of it?

[uəʌəsʎɐɾ]

I'm so tempted to post a plain white square....

[Paj!]

Footprints in the morning snow. Spelling get.

[Dannyboy-the-Dane]

I will put up pictures and a few videos, but PhotoBucket was being a bitch earlier ... and still is, I see. I'll upload the two videos now instead.

Here's the first.

xDH-nXQuHIY

And here's the second. Notice how much more snow and ice there is!

[Twozzok]

That was the best drive ever, we were sliding around going 10mph XD

[Wesley]

So I've had quite a bit of snow this evening and tonight (really nice walking back home at midnight in the snow).

Hopefully tomorrow there will be lots of snow in the day because there's this house about half an hour away from me that's dilapidated which I came across in Sept. I've wanted to take a picture of it when it's all snowed in for a while now.

[Ramar]

Loads of snow everywhere, and surprise surprise the council hasn't even gritted the roads. It made the journey home from work this morning rather eventful.

[Wesley]

Yay!

The snow stayed today.

I went for a long walk for about 2 hours in it.

Was nice.

Took lots of pictures for texture use.

Found the house!

Er...

Got some chips! :D

[Tales]

Started snowing yesterday. Here's outside my window back home.

Wow, that's from your window at home?

What an amazing view!

[martinist]

Was snowing about two days ago, Its stayed on the ground and hasn't melted though. Sky is starting to grey over again, might get some more soon.

[Rummy]

Thursday night I was slightly excited at the snow and the prospect of playing in it especially after someone text me to go play in the snow. I woke up the next day and promptly realised, I might actually think snow is a bit shit.

[Dannyboy-the-Dane]

What is that a view of, Tales? It's indeed beautiful. :)

[Sheikah]

There was literally a blizzard here in Cheshire on Thursday... I was walking with my girlfriend to my house and it had started, then we went in Tesco for 10 minutes. Once we came out everywhere was whiter than white... crazy! I love snow, though.

There'll apparently be a huge snowfall on Monday here...white Christmas, perhaps? :D

[Tales]

What is that a view of, Tales? It's indeed beautiful. :)
Thanks, it's indeed a great view. Bought a camera earlier this year, but this is the first time I have been home since I bought it so I thought I would take some pictures of the town and the surroundings. I'll see if I find that town thread and bump it later :)

What you are looking at is the Atlantic Ocean and two of the islands in the county. Skuløya is the island to the left and Fjørtofta to the right.

Here's a map, I live where the arrow points.

Ah, I just realised you're from Norway. :D I love the landscape of Scandinavia - though we Danes don't have much of the beautiful scenery, unfortunately. :heh:

[Charlie]

Still no snow in Glasgow. :(

Apparently it's snowing back home at the moment though. We'd better get a decent covering!

[Wesley]

I dunno where this is.

I think it's Huddersfield.

Because that's where I live.

But...

It didn't feel like Huddersfield.

http://img63.imageshack.us/img63/7601/p1020030copy.jpg

And it's not Huddersfield.

I think there are some towns really close that just... keep going.

I dunno.

Pretty thick yesterday morning. Was about 18cm on grass.

I would so whack my face on that bin lid.

[ReZourceman]

Haha, awesome. It looks like icing on a cake.

[Ashley]

FINALLY snowed here. Although it rained a bit with it but some has stuck. Had a heavy storm for a bit but now its just light. Hope it carries on overnight so I can be a big kid tomorrow ^_^

[Cube]

Because of the snow, my parents don't think that they'll be able to pick me up for Christmas, instead I may have to get the train there (and I have too much stuff to take on the train).

The odd thing is that it's probably much more dangerous for them to pick me up form the train station. If they're coming from Wales to Stockport than the main road (which will be fully gritted and looked after) out of Wales is literally a minute from their house. If they're picking me up from the train station then they'll be on small country/town roads for an hour, which will be last on the list for gritting.

[Eenuh]

Aaaaah snow!

A few days ago it snowed like crazy all over the country, except for where I live. But today I wake up to a huuuuuge white carpet outside (opened my window and snow fell in haha). It's still snowing right, wonder when it will stop.

My poor dog looks more white than black right now. I think I'll go join her outside for some snow fun. Hope the snow sticks so I can make a snowman! =D

[Raining_again]

wooo 2 inches of snow here!!! :D

[EEVILMURRAY]

You lucky bastards! It snows here [it seems heavily] for about 10 minutes, then relaxes, then stops. Sometimes repeats itself. Then the clouds disappear and the sun starts shining. It's like that now, blue skies but white roads.

I want to make another Hard-On the Snowman.

[Raining_again]

Had to make the snowman on a bench cause my dog kept breaking it otherwise. =P

[ReZourceman]

Oh god, bench snowman is amazing.

[Sheikah]

It snowed again last night here in Cheshire, and it's snowing really heavy right now. The snow is sooo thick. :D

It doesn't even feel all that cold to me, which is a bit weird. I keep hearing thunder which means it may rain/hail. Hope not!

[darksnowman]

That sitting snowman is great, Eenuh!


Here's a pic I snapped this morning:

http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q230/darksnowman19/IMG00539.jpg

[Slaggis]

The snow's about one and a half hands deep here. Literally everywhere, it's almost eerie looking out the window. Still snowing too.

That sounds fucking awesome. I don't think it's even been that deep in my area [:blank:]

However the sky has gone deathly grey and the snow has commended once again. Here's hoping it settles and gets as deep as it did for Slaggis' area.

[Dannyboy-the-Dane]

Loving the snow images - especially the light settings. :) Oh, and your dog is made of win, Eenuh! :D It's so cute!

Is there supposed to be more tonight? It's been snowing here for 2 days straight basically now. Took me almost an hour to get home via bus last night...a journey that usually takes 20 minutes. My fault for living on the edge of the Moors. BBC mention us in this article. 8 inches of snow overnight. (Pickering) (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/north_yorkshire/8420027.stm)

[Wesley]

Oooh, a lot more snow today.

Very good.

I'm in love with the bench snowman.

I want to be his friend, sit next to him and read him a book.

Is he still alive?

This is what Yahoo Weather says to me:

Today PM Snow Showers
High: 0° Low: -2°

Tomorrow Sunny
High: 0° Low: -4°

Tuesday Few Snow Showers
High: 0° Low: -4°

Wednesday Partly Cloudy
High: -1° Low: -4°

Thursday Rain/Snow
High: 2° Low: -3

The sky can't make it's bloody mind up. It's giving it some zest now. Still not sure if it's going to settle or not.

Eenuh, is that a Bernese Mountain Dog? High five if it is.

As far as I know he's still alive. It's dark though so can't check. Maybe tomorrow if there's still snow I'll make a snowwoman. =)

Eenuh, is that a Burmese Mountain Dog? High five if it is.
Yep, she's a Bernese Mountain dog! Love her! =D

[Jimbob]

Had some snow over-night, which was a surprise to be honest. Forecast didn't say we'd have any. Forecast says we are not due to get anymore this week, and it would warm up a tad.

[Happenstance]

Started snowing again here, hope it doesnt last for too long though as I wanna go out tomorrow to get the last few presents I need.

[Kirkatronics]

Its really bad to drive on so ill just let you guys into somethings ive found which make it much easier to drive in these conditions.
-Set off in second gear where you can.
-Feather your brakes instead of slamming them on.
-Drive at a speed your comfy with.
-Dont let anyone bully you.
-If your wheels just spin, stop and set off slower.
-Avoid icy routes (even if it means take the long way).
-Most of all dont panic.


Has anyone here had any mishaps yet?

[Coolness Bears]

I BUILT A SNOWMAN WITH MY NEPHEW. :grin:

Other than that I want to work tomorrow so I can get monies. :)

[JonSt]

It's carnage up here at the moment. Went to bed last night and having not snowed properly for a few days, it was beginning to melt. Woke up this morning for work and it was just a whiteout. It's been snowing hard all day and it's gonna snow tomorrow. I'll snap some pics later as i'm off to build a snowman.

[mcj metroid]

it's beginning to look a lot like christmas..... which is unusual for a tumour

[Mr_Odwin]

I nearly crashed my car today. Slid on ice and only just managed to regain control at the very last minute. Really uncool.

eep! at least you managed to get control again..

Thankfully most of our main roads are okay, but everything else is a disaster. The snow has compacted and basically turned to hard ice. Very scary!

We had a bit more snow today so I thought I'd go and take a walk and take some photos when I saw a kid making a snowman so I decided to go back home and...

:D

He looks a bit drunk. The snow was quite dense so it was difficult to put things in (although after I took the pics I found some drawing pins so used those as eyes instead).

Then popped him on top of the hedge for passer-byers to appreciate (and hopefully not steal my hat and scarf!)

[Karl619]

Does it make it a white Christmas if there is snow on the ground or does it have to be actively snowing. I know the MET office say it has to be snowing but for me as long as its white out there its a white Christmas..obviously!

[Dannyboy-the-Dane]

I think the official criteria in Denmark is that 90% of the country must be covered in snow.

[Cube]

OMG! Lots of snow.

Hopefully everyone can still get here for Christmas.

[Tales]

It startet melting yesterday. There a chance it will all be gone tomorrow :(

[uəʌəsʎɐɾ]

Snow is awesome. I can't help but see how far I can slide along it on my way home.

We had PROPER snow just now, for about two hours -- the really fine stuff. People keep talking about inches of snow and whatever, but I'd say we've never had more than a solirary inch worth here in sheffield (unless there's been greater downfalls in my sleep, which is likely!).

Snow does make me feel all happy-for-no-reason. Is it bad that I want it to snow so bad we're all trapped in our houses 'til january?

[flameboy]

snow just started again here tonight! awesomeness!

[Fierce_LiNk]

This Christmas has been so amazing. I caught the National Express from Newport to London, and I just had my face stuck to the window for most of the journey. Firstly, there were little patches of snow, but it gradually seemed to get thicker and more frequent the further south we travelled.

We got into London, and then I caught my next coach to Brighton. I actually asked the Driver to let me off early, before I got to Preston Park. The whole park was covered in snow. Thick snow. ACTUAL snow! I walked through it, carrying my heavy bag, with a huge smile of my face. :D

I took two pictures, which I'll post later when I upload them. There were some lads also playing football in the snow, haha. I wanted to join in.

This is a photo of my two friends (who I stayed with) having a snow ball fight on The Level. :D At this point, my hands were freezing because I was throwing snow balls without gloves on. So, I took a break and took a few photos.

[Nolan]

We had snow xmas eve....then we had pouring fucking rain all day on xmas. Melted all the snow, but not before turning it all into slick sheets of ice.

[Tales]

The snow didn't melt on Christmas and it has been snowing like crazy ever since. Don't think we have had this much snow in many years. The climate is usually very mild here so it only last a few days before it rains for a couple weeks then repeat. Now we have had snow on various levels since the 18th. Was the global warming thing supposed to change the gulf stream in any way?

On the 19th

I've barely been in Uni this week due to snow...and apparently there's heavy snow showers due for 3AM tomorrow morning. Ohh... it was so cold walking back today. Apparently last night temperatures reached -16 nearby which is insane. The snow is so deep here in Manchester - I've never seen anything like it!

News saying today that because of the shabtastic snow, some exams can't go ahead, being pimped back to the summer, but for those who have finals around now, if it isn't going on they're pretty much going to get a free pass, being judged on work during the term. Well fair on those who have revised to the max over the winter holiday.

Is this for real? So people get to pass without doing anything? Hardly fair I'd say... Why can't they just put the exams on some other days a week or two from now? =/

[Wesley]

Yeah... I really doubt they just "pass".

At most they get a grade based on previous/other exams taken at the same period or based on coursework.

Either way the system fails.

Yeah... I really doubt they just "pass".

At most they get a grade based on previous/other exams taken at the same period or based on coursework.

Either way the system fails.
Pretty much this, but it's still bullshit.

[Caris]

Tales you have an amazing view from our house.

[Slaggis]

Pickering (Where I live) was just on BBC News (Not the local one, the main one). I love so much. "We almost didn't make it here today, the roads are that terrible. We spoke to one resident who said 'it's like relatives at Christmas. It's out stayed its welcome".

We're forecast another 12cm of snow tonight, it's terrifying. We had 8 inches last night.

[Gizmo]

lol The western tip of Dumfries and Galloway is the only place not covered

Oh the irony!

[Raining_again]

Northern Ireland's had very little compared to everyone else it seems.

The Snow is getting annoying now in London. We have lots of hard icey snow bits causing havoc. So it either needs to dry up and go or there needs to be some nice new fluffy so coming down heavy to give me some proper snow to play with.

Commuting to work all week was a joke with the trains. I want a snow day off. So bring it Mr Cloud.

NAWWWWW!!!

In other news, getting back to uni may prove a pain in the ass with this snow. Also apparently theres 'biggest snowball fight ever' in Leeds on sunday but I won't be back in time. Sad.

[Letty]

Well here's Shetland when I was back for the holidays!

[danny]

Isnt that just like saying theres snow at the north pole at this time of year?

[Tales]

So? I just thought it was beautiful.

And it didn't stop anyone from posting a similar picture of Great Britain even though everyone knew it had been snowing like crazy all over northern Europe.

[Nolan]

49 of 50 states in the US have snow on the ground.

[Roostophe]

Ooh, I wonder which one doesn't have snow...


It's Alaska, isn't it? They never have snow in Alaska. Alaska is just too close to the...to the...north...

...oh...

It was just the STILL like it was a suprise or something lol. Thats all. I know quite a few people who are out there now doing arctic warfare training. Just seemed like an odd comment that was all.

[Jimbob]

The one without snow is probably Nevada or Texas. Both are continuously hot places.

[Nolan]

Actually I believe it was Hawaii. Houston Texas has already got 14 inches.

[lostprophetpunk]

The snow has all gone from the UK. Although I am thankful for it as I slipped up on black ice on xmas eve and dislocated my knee cap!

[danny]

theres still snow in hampshire where they piled it uup the week after new year. just goes to show how cold its been.

[Raining_again]

snow coming tomorrow according to ze weather forecast. A good bit of northern ireland (although not us) had it today.

Yay.... not.

[Jimbob]

Weather report can't make it's mind up. Snow is more likely to fall in the high grounds, where the low grounds (where i am) is expected to get rain or sleet.

Should be interesting anyway, and snow isn't meant to last long.

Edit: Well, it's going to be interesting tomorrow. Reasonable until lunch-time, then snow/sleet until late/into the morning. It's as i said, the weather cannot make it's mind up. BBC Wales says one thing, BBC in general says a different thing.

[Kirkatronics]

Near where i live, it rarely snows.
Just 6-8 miles away in Penistone they get lots of it.

[Happenstance]

Was in town today and it did snow but none settled, took the bus back home and my village is just covered in the stuff and its still coming down

[Kirkatronics]

Is anyone else hating the snow?

[Jimbob]

My hometown had some snow earlier, nothing staying down. I go 15 miles up the road into Newport, and it is all slushy (starts at the Coldra). 40 miles away in Cardiff, it had snow and was the same as Newport but according to my Dad who works there, it is gone.

[Shorty]

Man, wasn't expecting this weather in Sheffield. Haven't seen snow for about a month, it's been bright for the past few days, even seen the sun.

Wake up this morning to 8" of snow!

[K-project]

You in Sheffield too Shorty? I woke up this morning and was shocked at the sight! Hopefully it won't hang around too long, but it's quite deep innit?

[The fish]

Guildford is currently snow-free, which makes a nice change. I haven't spoken to my folks recently, but, whenever it snows, my home town of Harpenden gets it the most in the south east. What's the furthest south it's gotten to this time? Northamptonshire is the closest I've heard.

[Karl619]

Stoke and the surrounding area has about 3-6 inches of snow! enough to enable me to call into work saying I can't make it in .. ha ha. All the bus routes have been cancellled today too bcause the drivers couldn't make it in :D

[danny]

Teres maybe 2 inch on my street (Cumbria). Dont know what its like over town though. Hope the roads are clear was supposed to be doing something tonight.

[Sexual Chocolate]

Where abouts in cumbria Danny?

[danny]

Barrow (need 10 charicters)

[ReZourceman]

we hax got snowz

[Dan Dare]

fuck snow in the eye.

Likewise with Leeds. Well, it's pathetically drizzled with snow recently but then suddenly I wake up yesterday, expect a normal day, get a text saying 'it snowed' (useful) and look out the window to see endless whiteness! Crazy times.

[Nolan]

Blurhg

Woke up to about 4" of snow this morning. Roads are a mess, I did 25mph the whole way home. Apparently another 4-8" could be on the way....or rain, or freezing rain.

Seems to be snowing, settling, melting then about 2 days later snowing again here on a loop...getting a bit annoying now

[Gentleben]

I am so sick of the snow now.


A never ending supply of snowflakes in the air
they keep landing on my coat and in my hair

:cry:
