According the Met Office, there won't be any snow until Xmas apart from on high ground. Of course that's not 100%. I just hope it doesn't. I hate driving in it.

[grahamw48]

Already snowing in the Scottish Highlands. :)

- Hope Arthur's ok. :Erm:

[Englishman2010]

Long may the mild autumn continue, and no snow at Christmas please, I don't want my flight held up because the runway is frozen:rolleyes:

[grahamw48]

I remember being put up in a hotel at Gatwick one winter, on my way to Manila...airport closed. :rolleyes:

[-sillybilly-]

I'd love to snow.....that means theres no train to work and I will just stay indoors having a nice cuppa watching tv!

[Terpe]

I hate the snow. :angry:
I hate the cold.:angry:
I've already made many strong 'spells' against that with magic potions. :ReadIt:

Give me blue skies and warm sunshine anyday. Lovely :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Didn't realise Hong Kong got to minus 9 on a daily basis like it did in Swindon last December.

The weather we experienced then was freak.
You will probably have to wait another 30 years for a white Christmas.

[raynaputi]

I want to wear my snow boots already!!! :icon_lol:

I was in Honkers last Dec, it did get a bit chilly in the evening, I even put a long sleeve shirt on one night and socks on with my flip flops:icon_lol:

[grahamw48]

In February 1996 when I was working in HK, it dropped to 7C, but in the middle of the night.(I was at work down a tunnel....with jumper).

That was their coldest temperature ever recorded. :)

Normally at Xmas there....around 17-20C daytime.

This time of the year in England I consider it a bonus if it's above freezing at night, and double figures during the day (for the benefit of our overseas members), but like anything you've grown up with, you're accustomed to it.

For an average Brit it would be pretty intolerable after only a few minutes to sit in a house in the Philippines daytime without a fan.

[mickcant]

At least our politicians can’t control when we get snow:crazy:

For me, I would rather not have it anyhow:Cuckoo:
Mick.:xxgrinning--00xx3:

[grahamw48]

They've certainly got us up to our necks in SOMETHING at the moment though. :rolleyes:

I hate the snow.
I hate the cold.

Do you get much on the IOW Mick? I'd have thought the sea air kept you a few degrees warmer than the mainland:Erm:

[Ako Si Jamie]

When I lived on the I.O.W in the eighties, when it snowed it really snowed. I've lived in Northern Scotland too and I'd say I've seen just as much snow in one day on the Isle of Wight as I have up north.

[grahamw48]

Isn't that why they call it the IOW ? :Erm:

[Ako Si Jamie]

Different spelling :xxcheeky-smiley-013

[grahamw48]

Who can spell these days ?:Erm:

[gWaPito]

Like many, I'd rather do without it...it was bad enough last winter doing my job driving a 32 tonner...now we got double deckers weighing upto 44 tonnes...not much fun in the snow.....cracking many walnuts. Nut crackers not required:NoNo:

My thermometer just hit minus 1. That's the end of our summer baskets....never had them last that long before.

Winter pansies next :)

[lastlid]

next you filipina's will be moaning its too :freezin:

:D
But you can ski in Manchester. I will probably be taking my wife there after xmas. Chill Factor.

[lastlid]

Well, last year was the first year we had snow on the IOM for 40years. But the IOM is further from the mainland than the Isle of Wight.

[tone]

All I get asked every day is when will we get snow! Got up this morning and saw the frost - thermo said 0 C outside beautiful sunrise, snow probably wont be long and will be harsh as it has been the last few years, I just wished I still had 4 wheel drive again!

[ConfusedMe]

Not a big fan of cold weather. But love to experience my first White Christmas though :)

[grahamw48]

Just changed the water in the car's cooling system. Topped up with antifreeze, and heater works. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Bring it on. :D

[sars_notd_virus]

The snow is always the best when it just settles down,...I so much hate the freezing wind @ -10deg, its now better at two degrees with the snow, Lovely!!

[grahamw48]

Bah.....blinkin snow ! Damned nuisance. :cwm3:

What's that written on the gable end of the house on the left:icon_lol:

[grahamw48]

Hahaha.

I just noticed that and went to check.:icon_lol:

Some naughty person has written graffiti in SNOW all over the walls across the road. :D

Quite clever and harmless really, as it will be melting soon I HOPE !

[Terpe]

We had so much snow yesterday.
It just started off as that powder snow around 3pm and very gradually got worse and worse. By 10pm it was a blizzard.

I'm thinking to go out with a camera later. Only thinking though.

I hate snow. I hate cold.

[grahamw48]

Oops....just been upstairs to read the snow graffiti, which is also right across the road from the bus stop, so soon the churchgoers will be stopping every half hour to read in letters 2 feet high about the size of Julie's nether regions and Pinky's organ. :omg: :laugher:

[lastlid]

No snow here. It is 6 or 7 degrees C. My wife isnt best pleased. Snow everywhere else but here. We are going to take a look up the mountain to see if any has fallen there.

[sars_notd_virus]
