Fantastic shots there Carotio! :salute:
Sadly no white Christmas this year, unless it's snowing right now. The rain dispersed all the snow we had, but maybe next year! :ping: Scotland looks like it might get a white one though. |
It melted some today but there is still a solid foot of snow on the ground around here.
|
Back to wind and rain over here. So much for a white Christmas. :shifty:
|
You got your white Christmas Arclight, or at least, here in Utrecht it's snowing right now. :up:
|
I noticed on the radar, but it seems to be passing us by. Zit hier in Vlissingen (Zeeland). ;)
Ow well, just watched M*A*S*H, Tora! Tora! Tora! is coming up and Monthy Python's Meaning of Life is on tonight. Doesn't get much better than that. :) |

Nice pics Carotio.
A little under -30° Celsius here now, plus windchill. Some snow but not really that much but more to come this winter. |

Seems like we'll be breaking that record... :( |

Last year we've been lucky we had only 3 or 4 days of this. |

On the other hand we're also at the very foot of some high mountains, so we have seven world-class ski resorts all one half-hour drive from the city and forty-five minutes from the airport. |

This is a photo I took just as a gritting lorry was passing by. |
Bad photo, taken five minutes ago. Damned snow!

Well, we've had some more since Christmas although it's been a strange kind of snow, mostly hail more than snow but it sticks around and forms a layer like snow. Of course, then it partially melts during the day and then freezes solid at night when we drop below zero. Which makes the early morning walk to work a veritable Dancing on Ice.
At least the roads are usually clear, so I just walk on them, the pavements are lethal. It's a miracle that no-one has sued the council yet. Still, at least someone is enjoying it ;) http://img686.imageshack.us/img686/8976/0000479.jpg |
We are due for a lot more.
I'm well chuffed with that picture, lucky the truck was coming at the right time. Considering I didn't have a tripod it has come out really well. |
Jesus Stabiz:o Better you than me brother. Holy cow that is a lot of snow.
|
yay, we might get anouther dusting in afiew days.

LOL, I should send the picture into some news site and see if they would believe me if I told them it is a UFO.

Whew! Houston is about to get hit by an arctic blast. Snow twice in one winter? Why not, global climate change :haha:
