.. is finally here in Lower Saxony. It started snowing yesterday and the temperatures dropped down to -14.5 °C (that's 5.9°F). One of my cars had issues starting, the battery almost failed. The temperatures haven't been that low for the last 8 years (I hope our heating at work won't fail, Tuesday one of the pumps just shut itself off and it got quite cold in our office within 2 hours). But it looks like that I'll have a christmas with a lot of snow this year 
What's the weather like where you live? Will you have a "White Christmas" ?

When I lived in California, it would get pretty chilly and windy and the skies would cloud over. Sometimes we'd get some rain, but that's it. Now that I live in Colorado, the temperature really drops and we've had snow a few times. Maybe I'll have my first white Christmas.

California is a nice place during the summer. Passed through there and visited past some family while moving, but it was beautiful. Never experienced winters there though.

Rural area of Pennsylvania where I used to live meant what I called "paved snow". The plows wouldn't completely clear the roads, and I got to learn to drive a bit out in it. Makes me a bit embarrassed to be 22 without a license, but I should finally get one within a few months once we get a new car. Back on subject, I now live in Florida, and a little bit of cold air seems to be about as bad as we get it, but I'll be flying home Tuesday. Might get a white Christmas this year  |

Seeing as almost everyone in NY hates snow I think it drives away any chance of it somehow. @_@

I live in Norway, in a city called Stavanger, and for the last years we haven't seen much snow around Christmas. Today however, it started snowing like crazy! Maybe there will be a white Christmas here this year then ^^

Sure, if you enjoy passing out from heat every time you step outside, running up your electricity bill just to keep it tolerable in your house, having to change your sheets and clothes every day from sweating, tossing and turning in bed for a couple of hours chasing the ever elusive cool spots in your bed, those abysmal cloudless blue skies, blindingly bright days, aggravatingly short nights...shall I go on?

Hate summer much, Mr. Gray?
Usually where I live, there's not a lot of snow. It's not too bad, with the occasional school/work cancellation (Like today, with the six to twelve inches of snow we're getting here!).

| After getting 7" of snow a week ago,an average temp of only 5 F for the past few days and with close to a foot of more snow due here in New England by tomarrow moring,I can honestly say that I am sick of winter already.Ashton,after spending my entire life in this winter icebox,I will take California in a heartbeat if I could afford to move.
