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

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.

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.

Why do you purposefully embrace reasoning you must know is faulty?

Yeah, but even those PMV's get stuck in the snow sometimes...

Sorry, article is in Danish.

This time round, Odense didn't get as much snow, we have just about 1-3 cm snow here right now. But it's cold. -4.5 C outside now. Though is here...

-4.5* C cold? Nah, quite comfortable.

Here it was -25* C yesterday, -13* C today. The coldest temperature this week was -40* C further up north in Lappland.

Well, it's the deepest I've seen snow here since I moved up here in 1992.











And last but not least...The Hunt for White October!
