Snow! - Page 11

Feek · 20-12-2009, 11:01

We had a fresh very thin coating overnight and it's still very cold, it was -1.4 when I got up just before 7 this morning and it's dropped to -2.5 now. The temperature outside didn't go above freezing at all yesterday.

I took Mrs. Feek to work and it's quite funny looking at the few tracks in the snow and seeing how many idiots have overcooked it on the corners and gone into the kerb.

It's coming down quite thickly now

Erp indeed. My previous boss lives there. Was doing a favour for him yesterday and I mentioned we'd got snow here - that ^^ was his response, though not the bit about deaths.

No new snow here, and at least the pavements have mostly cleared, though I'll wager it's icy.

It's actually quite pleasant here

Bright sun, warmish when one is out of the shadows and very dry

White Christmas? It's not looking very likely!!

Snowed a little here overnight

Only really a sprinkling and it's going now as it's sunny, but it does look nice

Well it snowed overnight, I cleared off the car and it now has about 2 inches of snow on it again. If the snow would kindly like to stop please, my car is not good in the now

It's looking to be clear of snow for Christmas and I hope it stays that way or no Christmas for me (folks live a half hour driveaway). The roads are pretty poor today and with heavy snow forecast for later in the week I think if it's bad I might just take a random days leave! :P

People do make fun of us and how we react to snow. In fairness most places where they get a lot of snow they are far more prepared for it than us, we really don't get enough of it for long enough to justify snow tyres etc.

I wish they'd stated DC in the opening, my cousin lives in Washington state.

It does say East Coast in the title though.

Washington state, for the benefit of anyone who doesn't know, is North West USA.
