What's new

Snow.

^Basically. There's some green in Ireland and there are clouds over the south so nothing can really be said about that, but pretty much the entire country.
 
Is sHatfield (Herts) the only place in the country that has no snow whatsoever at the moment?
Yesterday was pretty mild compared to other places in the UK, and the rain washed away pretty much all of the snow (which was very little anyway).

If so, it's the only good thing Hatfield has EVER done! :p
 
It's funny, I remember last winter someone posted a satellite picture about how Britain was completely covered in snow. :lol:
 
Foot and a half over the past few days and including tomorrow. :p

Got a few inches Friday, some flurries yesterday, and then today it snowed tons all day long, and is meant to continue into tomorrow.
 
I can't be the ONLY one giggling like a schoolgirl about everyone talking about inches, surely?

It would also seem that Taylor STILL gets her satisfaction at McDonald's right before a few ice creams! Not to mention running a cumulative inch total. :p

Pierre's remains the most impressive however; despite seemingly shrinking with age! :lol:
 
Okay, we got almost two feet now. The car outside my window is completely covered. The good thing is, my residence looks beautiful even covered in snow.

^Bloody hell, Tay! It must make you laugh when you see all us Brits complaining about the snow we get. Ours was nothing compared to that...

I hope you made a big snowman!
 
^ Yes I know, that's why I laugh when everyone freaks out over an inch or two. First time in four years that classes were cancelled today at uni though, so it was pretty heavy, even for us, and it's still snowing heavily right now. Was a laugh trying to see the guy get into his car though :p .

Buses and stuff are still running but they're skidding like, everywhere.

No snow woman yet because it's still like snowing hard, but there was a snowball fight in our hallway today and we got in trouble :p . Tomorrow hopefully I'll make one, shame it's exam time though, so can't have too much fun.
 
Pushing two and a quarter feet now.

Class cancelled two days in a row, and it's university, where class NEVER cancels.

Never seen so much snow in my life.. Probably take more pics today as you can't see literally anything. Cars are all covered, then picnic table in the courtyard is virtually gone, the bikes are buried.. It's nuts.
 
Well, up in Sheffield we've had loads of snow. I've just measured my back garden, there’s 13 inches left now. But I measured it at 22 inches last Wednesday. We had a mental amount of snow. We were genuinely snowed in last week.
 
^Yeah, we had at least 2ft of snow in some places. It was great.

I'm now also going to plug another one of my pictures. I'm really pleased with how it came out, seemed to capture the feel of the place perfectly. Taken on Wednesday 1st December in Sheffield:

Haha, spot the picnic table!

This is getting nuts though.. We have 114cm now (so four feet for you American folk), we're getting another 40cm tonight (a foot and a bit), on top of 15cm tomorrow. Mayor is apparently calling a state of emergency because of how crap the roads are and how people are trapped inside and all the car accidents, etc. Will be out to take more pics later, it's the most snow I've seen in my whole life. I guess living in the snow belt is living up to its reputation already.

PS- Matt that's a nice pic. Love the trees.
 
^...Nope, can't see it! What's that building in the background (top left)? Because the snow is kinda like eating some of the windows...

Please do keep taking photos, Tay! I knew it snowed in Canada, but not THAT much!
 
That's our cafeteria, haha.. The bottom part where the windows are covered is part of the basement where some of the lounges are, etc.

The picnic table is just above the middle of the photo, right in the centre :p You can see a little brown line where the top of it is.

And I will, when I go grab food Im gonna take some more pics of the courtyard and stuff.

It typically doesn't snow this much where I live.. This is even record for London, which is known to get a ****load of know. Back home, there's literally nothing, and that's only two hours away.
 
I know, double post etc, but it's for Enigma Shadow!

That's the handlebars of a bike.

And another bike.

That's a staircase. I tried going down one of the staircases covered in snow just for ****s and giggles, but it ended up being not so fun.

The pile is almost as tall as me.

I see the picnic table!
 
A friend of a friend (sort of) just posted a picture on Facebook from your London:

Those are parking meters... mental.
 
^ Yep, it's insane, they've already cancelled class for tomorrow too because they don't expect it to stop. I decided to walk through the courtyard to the cafeteria rather than taking the inside route but I got a huge soaker as I didn't expect the snow to come up so high :p .
