I have a feeling we should have gone to Canada AFTER Christmas instead of for Christmas as where my sister lives since about a week after we came back to the UK they've had snow nearly every day and temperatures as low as -20C! - all we had around Christmas were a few inches of snow and temperatures only around -3C or thereabouts!

The relatives tell me there's a fair bit in Newfoundland at the moment.

Where's your sister?

She's in Orangeville... about 45 minutes or so from Toronto - and right in the snow belt!

So... anybody got any of the white stuff yet?

Parts of London could get up to 6cm or so!

Well, there's a covering here in Newcastle. 'Dry snow', the airport information service is calling it.

Oh my gosh! Watching sky news anyone would think we were in for snow storms of Arctic conditions.

Mind you if we do get tons of the white stuff, i might just take the day off. heavy snowfall = Playtime!!

Well, I am tempted to say that I'll eat my hat if there's a single flake in the far South West tomorrow. The sky just hasn't indicated so today, tonight before dusk, it actually felt warmer as the clouds thickened up.

There's no appreciable wind either.

I do know it's a lot colder further north and east but I just wonder if this dump of white stuff will axtually appear in the quantities predicted.

It's not even raining here yet.

Sleet. It's not going to be anything other than sleet.

The beautiful news is that it's currently warmer at all bar one of the British antarctic stations than it is here.

Damn their above-zero ways!

How bizarre, around here is pretty much the one bit of the country meant to be snowless, and yet...
