Nor'Easter

We haven't received more than an inch combined all winter (and I live just outside the most northerly major city in Canada). Me likes the global warming or whatever is responsible for the freakishly warm weather here this year. :D
 
We got roughly 6 inches two weeks before Christmas, and a light dusting yesterday which was gone by nightfall.

I miss winter. :no:
 
I lived in Thompson, Manitoba for a few years and we had snow on the ground from September to late May. I don't miss it. :lol:
 
*stabs Blue Wolf*

At the very least I was one of the first to call this blizzard (I predicted a Northeast blizzard last Thursday, way before the Pro Mets did) ;)

*dances*
 
It's cold outside where I am but not snowing, though it did last week apparently (I wasn't at home last week). It's a good job it's not snowing here cos a few hours ago my dad's car broke down and the brakes failed completely while we were driving down a really steep hill. I just got home an hour ago because we had to be towed back.
 
*Continues to tan nicely, drive around on clean pavement, having absolutely no snow in the valley* Oh what, you all do this to me when I get snowed in! :P
 
Utah, here...It has been cold enough to burn my lungs while running in the mornings. Snow would actually warm things up a bit. :headbang:
 
Where in Utah are you at King? I've got a friend that's in Ogden and he's been surprised at the lack of snow for this late in the year.
 
:P Unfortunately, I'm in San Antonio, Texas (the armpit of the climatic world), where we don't actually have "seasons," just one year-long hellish ordeal with a few bright spots in December.
 
I live just north of Houston and I have taken the four hour drive to San Antonio a few times and the hottest I have seen it get there is about 111 degrees. That's not all that bad, really. San Antonio is a nice city with a great basketball team.
 
Winnipeg is on it's second winter storm in one week and I'm dealing with snowdrifts that could bury a large animal. What is even more fun is driving through these fronts, the first one on Wednesday caught me on a travel day and made life a little more than interesting. Today's hit the same area and pummeled the area I traveled to (Dauphin) Wednesday was an 8 hour drive (usually takes 4) and I can only guess how long today's would have taken. I can't wait for spring!
 
You crazy people with your continental climates.

Just be thankful you don't live in the UK, where anything other than overcast or raining is a national emergency...

For example:

Snow (especially the 'wrong type') - Trains don't work.
Sun - Trains don't work.
Autumn, leaves on the tracks - Trains don't work.

Luckly, snow seems to be going out of fashion (not since I was a lad have I seen a proper snowfall), and the Sun was last spotted in 1994, and we were promised that was a freak event...
 
We had snow last week, which meant that some people on the valleys (pobol y cwm in fact - hah!) had trouble getting in and out. i.e. trains didn't work, mind you, Arriva are just shit anyway.

'Course, I have to be within walking distance of work, and right now? It's pissing down.

:mad:
