      Kids are home for a second day here. Snow storm doesn't want to stop. Snow plow hasn't come by in three hours so I don't know if I'll get into work...

      Here's a funny winter clip

      Regards, Ross

        That sounds bad Ross. I suppose I should not be complaining about
        the rainy weather we are getting over here. Still today is not too
        bad, just some light showers. The Sun even came out, was beginning to
        forget what it looked like.

          Ross,

          That clip takes place in my town, Traverse City, MI.

          It's funny since the reporter didn't get hurt. I'd hate to take a 2# chunk of ice though.

          This time of year 2 out of 3 of our days are overcast, but sunny days are coming!

          Thomas

            hmmm...

            They promised us snow for tomorrow here in Heehawville (Texas) and now they spinning the story saying we will get the arctic blast but the moisture has moved on so the chances of snow diminished.

            Damn!! was looking forward to it.

              We had a good laugh here in the office over that vid.
              Thanks, Ross

                We had exceptionally lots of snow this year (usually we have a little for a week or two) but it seems to have gone now. We have had some shiny days or almost weeks lately (though today it look a bit cloudy).

                It was nice to have so much snow after years but it was - yeah... - enough. I wish the almond trees started to bossom already!

                This photo was taken January 21 last year.

                  It is funny that you shared this just yesterday Ross. We had snow here in Huntsville/Madison Alabama for the first time in forever. Not just flurries but snow. None of it stuck however but it was nice to see coming down.

                      On the contrary, no snow in Southern Finland, and temperatures of a couple of degrees C. And this used to be the coldest time of the year here.

                        I think Boulder, CO has some of your cold air Anssi. It was -5F (-20.5 C) last night and is only around 15F (-9.4 C) right now. Brrrrrr... It's ok, I slept under a warm dog though!

                        But, last weekend it was in the mid 50s and I got to ride my Super Motard both days!

                        We keep our snow in the mountains...it's been a banner year for the ski resorts here in Colorado.

                          -7F here this morning, and it was 14 deg F an hour before dusk, I think tomorrow morning will be a good one to sleep in. I'm thinking of snow birding..

                                Snow? What is snow? Did not see any this "winter" here in central germany... I have fading memories of childhood days with playing in the snow...

                                          Just a nice balmy 28c here in Queensland, AU.
                                          For the first time in a long time we are having a nice typical subtropical humid summer. For many summers its been to hot and to dry, maybe climate chance is going to work in our favor. I am just loving it at the moment.

                                          He Ross, I see you have switched to a Mac, congratulations in order, but what happened to your beloved Xara. I haven't looked at their site for ages. Do they have an Apple version now at last.
