First snow here this year.
-
See this webcam image with our main square (the Christmas tree is already up - time to get some hot, spicy, boiled wine...)
-
What? Hungary has only just had its first snow?
Hell has been freezing over in the United Kingdom over the last few weeks!!!
-
Well, not the whole country but we are in the warmest spot with some sub-Mediterranean climate here (you know, fig trees, pomegranate etc.)
-
Csaba, have you got room for me to move in with you?
We got about 18" of snow over the weekend. I'd have taken the photo from the lower level window but you can't see out them because of the high drifts.
-
We do not get so much throughout the whole winter! -
With so much downtime in Minnesota, it amazes me that it is such a bustling economic center.
Perhaps the climate extremes have generated a great deal of problem solving? -
What do you mean, "downtime"? We don't get to hibernate. We end up working all that much harder.Get up early, shovel snow, go to work, come home, shovel snow...
-
Well, for us it would have to be rain shovels!
What comes first for you--milk the cows or shovel the snow? Gotta make the cheese. -
You gotta be able to get to the cows before you can milk 'em.
The amazing thing with all this snow is it was probably the equivalent of a couple or three inches of rain.
-
Depending on conditions, 1 inch-2.54cm of rain equals 10 inches-25.4cm of snow. I think I prefer the rain, although the snow has an aesthetic appeal from a distance
-
I like it from a distance, too.
-
Apologies to Gaieus. It's still your thread.
-
It's allsnow (and rain) thread!
(And after all, we are in the Corner Bar where people meander everywhere)
-
Time to put the sandals into storage Csaba
-
I have some nice, new boots (since 2005 actually)
-
We got our first snow on Sunday. Big puffy flakes at times but nothing stuck. Odd really because for the past 4 days or so the temp has not been above freezing.
-
first snow of the year in nyc last night as well (first snow that stuck at least).. not much but the ground is white.
i don't mind the snow or even cold temps for that matter.. it's that damn winter wind i can't stand.
-
First snow in Alexandria/Romania(this year) was this morning,but by 12:00 was already melted.
