It's now snowing here in London.

It's now snowing here in London.

A bit.

I shouldn't be surprised if, on the BBC news this evening, this will relegate other news items such as the postmaster scandal, Gaza etc. 😁

May have to resort to burning orphans - winter can be hard on kids.

Always have one up the chimney, just in case.

They're generally grateful to be useful. It gives them a sense of purpose.

How long before the Daily Mail announce a Class 1 Snowmageddon event?

Looks bad for poor little Switzerland, how will they cope? Should we send them our snow-plough? :-/

Meanwhile here in Canada it is unseasonably warm. Warm enough I’ll likely ride the bike to work today.

we are supposed to get properly hammered by old man winter next week, very cold, much white stuff, but that’s the opinion of the government web site so I could end up cutting the lawn.

Over the weekend I clicked one on one of those links. It had a title something like "200 Mile Snowbomb. Met Office Speaks Out"

It was really quite funny as it was a mix of lunatic hyperbole and actual Met Office quotes. So after a paragraph about the 200 Mile Snowbomb, a Met Office spokesman would confirm "possibility of some wintery showers in eastern areas"

Got up to this on the barometer this morning, it translates to: total s*** on its way.

i don’t think I’ve ever seen the barometer over that far… likely time to prep the arc.

Possible. Snowmageddon if it's in The Express ?

You can laugh but Sweden had trouble last week with snow on the motorway.
So even well prepared countries get caught out.
