    The lesser London. As in London Ontario from the Canada.

    Much less exciting, I'm sure.

    I am of the opinion that it is always snowing all the time in Canada.

    Canada is pretty much this all the time.

    They have Denebian Slime Devils in Canada??

    you didn't know that?

    Few days ago a woman was in the shop and as I rang her up we chatted about the weather and how stupidly cold it's been for South Carolina lately

    And then she says "so much for global warming, huh? I never thought that Al Gore knew what he was talking about"

    And I just sorta feebly said "... yeah"

    You sir are living the dream.

    Though maybe a bit more revision couldn't hurt.

    Apparently heavy snow is due for the UK next week. It's been years since there's been snow so close to Christmas in urban areas. Supermarkets and high streets are going to be fucking nuts if the snow gets too heavy.

    Thanks to living in Cambridge, having parents in Gosport, and the girlfriend having parents in Yorkshire, we have around 900 miles to travel between now and January (my folks' place once, hers twice).

    We could be spending Christmas and/or New Year in any one of a wide range of lovely motorway service stations.

    I would love to see it snow here in Los Angeles sometime, people already flip their shit when it starts raining. I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon though, in my almost 2 years living here, I don't think I've seen temps go below 45F or so. Currently it's upper 50's with a light mist.

    I kind of miss the snow, looking forward to getting some mountain trips in over the winter months for some hot board-on-snow action.

    Word on the street (facebook) is that the grim spectre of eternal winter has fallen upon Sheffield once more.

    Here in Bristol: Rain. It's always raining here though.

    It's raining in Cambridge as well. Supposedly it's then going to freeze and be covered with snow over the weekend.

    Turns out the wind we got a few days back was enough to shut down the school for 3 days in a row. Wooo! Still, I'd like to see some snow before Christmas comes.

    When it snowed heavily here in the UK a couple of weeks ago I had to walk home for two and half hours at night because the roads had jammed up. It's the only time when you're better off walking than driving as I shot passed this two mile long traffic jam and passed about five buses that are probably still there right now. Abandoned cars littered the streets and chaos ruled for twenty-four eons (hours).

    if the windchill is below -10 F here they close the schools

    mostly because a lot of kids walk to school i guess

    Apparently the Snowmaggedon is imminent, and by that I mean maybe 4 inches tops. 8AM final wasn't canceled but work was so instead of getting up earlier than normal and making money it was just get up early for forty five minutes of exam.

    I wish they knew how to deal with snow here.

    we still have over 2 feet of snow chilling out in the sub zero weather. When it 'warms up' that means mid 20's and more snow.

    I could do with this snow holding off for a few days, as I have to move house and I don't want to drive my tiny car filled with all my worldly possessions to Manchester through snowdrifts.
