It’s actually snowing for once in Somerset, and for once the snow is actually setting.
I for one am quite chuffed. I’ll have to get my sled out of the attic.

I LOVE it when you wake up and, just by the generally shiney-ness of the ceiling as you sit up in bed, you know that there's snow outside. Sadly, the snow hasn't reached us here in Hampshire yet. But I live in hope of snowball fights with my toddler.

It's just fricking dry here in London but with a really icy wind..
I want the fricking snow to come here, its good fun to see people getting into complete states because of the weather..
Oh how I love the disorder it brings...

I very much like snow, but I dislike the mud it turns into even more
Saw a couple of flakes when I came out of yesterday's gig, but that didn't last too long really...
Have not been out yet but my computer tells me it's -3°, think walking the dog won't last too long

Everything white over here this morning.
Although it usually doesn't stay very long.

Cool.
But then isn't there
always snow in Berlin?
It was bloody freezing this time last year when we went to buy some orange tops.
Currently dry but gusty as a Siberian plain here in Leeds. I'll settle for that, as I don't fancy driving to Sheffield in snow tomorrow. Though Sheff had apparently ground to a halt the other day 'because it was a bit cold', to quote my mate.

Nah, I'm just one of these perverse feckers that finds the cold, dark winter to be one of the most amazing parts of the year.
I really need a blizzard/snow in this week so I can get over my fricking jilting.. nothing like seeing other peoples misery to make your own feel less worse...

Snow, snow and more snow. Enough to get out of going to work
, but not enough to get the sledge out
boo!
Schools are closed, lorries stuck on the A9, journeys that should take 10mins are taking 30mins or more there is a howling gale, I'm expecting a coo to go flying past the window at any minute.
And the electric has just come back on after being off for 4hours, I'm off to make a cup of tea and a bit of toast before it goes off again, which no doubt it will.

There was snow here aswell. But now there's just mud, rain and very strong winds. I really hate this weather. The heating is up, but I am still freezing.
Thinking of moving to Costa Rica!

Just started here in Southend. But will it lie?
So far it doesn't look impressive, but the ground is fairly dry and there's a lot of cloud.
I like snow. I approve.

Blue skies and brilliant sunshine over West Yorkshire, and long may it continue. I
hate snow, not much fun when your only mode of transport is a scooter

There was a lite dusting of the stuff here in Glesga this morning, but it's almost entirely melted now.
I have the same feeling as Gottdammerung - watching the country grind to a hopeless halt because of a bit of frozen rain is
highly amusing

Just make sure that fire is lit, had to cook all sorts on the coal fire last winter during the floods!
You have fire up there?

Now it has started to snow over here too
Didn't realise it but my mom just came home and said she had a 5 cm thick layer of snow on the car and indeed it became white very fast
