AtariLegend Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) So while the arctic is heating up, in my lifetime this is the most snow I've ever seen (Northern Ireland). It literally has snowed here every other week over the past few months. I remember when I was a kid in the 90's and it rarely snowed. Anyone in the UK enjoying the constant snow?

DieselDaisy Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 I like the snow at certain times of the year but this snow arrived two months too late! ''White Christmas'' by all means but the cricket season is one and a half months away!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soon Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Maybe if you keep getting snowy winters you'll eventually build the skills required to medal like a Developed Nation at the Winter Olympics 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) The news report on five just now was hysterical, reporting it as if armageddon is here!

EvanG Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Winter is my favourite season but unfortunately we don't have real winters anymore. This year was a let down too... only a few days of real snow. The cold we are experiencing now is nice, but it's too late in the season... the sun is already too strong.

MillionsOfSpiders Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 My kids school is closed today so my two are definitely enjoying all of this snow! The cat isn't keen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
username Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Fuck snow. Give me ice. I want to see the first Frysian 11 cities speedskating tour since 1997. Go ice! It's the most expic speedskating tour there is. But yeah, the heaviest winter we've had here I can remember was probably 1997. But 1985 and 1986 were very strong too (but I was 1 and 2 years old then). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulMonster Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Not so much snow here, but quite cold. The beast from the east has been here for a while now. We even kept our youngest daughter home from skiing practise because of the cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it wasn't for all the snow we might have had the Elfstedentocht at one point during one of those years.

Tori72 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Winter is my least favorite season and I’m having enough of it. There’s no snow where I live but it’s cold -7 Celsius. I’ve seen some tweets making fun of the comparably little snow in the UK and the outrage about it. Don’t know if those pics were accurate though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janrichmond Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 All the local schools are closed so the town is full of teenagers hanging outside McDonalds/KFC all wearing their usual puffa jackets and trainers, Not a hat,scarf or welly boot between them!! Teens do not feel the cold. @MillionsOfSpiders are you Northern Monkeys wearing coats yet? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
