We had heavy snow storms here in the alp mountains the last 2 days/ nights... I really thought it blows me away on my way to my job in the morning and evening.

well, there was me complaining a couple of days ago, and it snowed last night! Not so bad as where you are Twi, but still, it was nice to see it falling.

Mostly too boring to talk about... some rain, some sun...
But tonigth I had to bring a friend home and it snowed! Like a real (well in The Netherlands) blizzard. Beautiful, haven't seen it for a long time!
Hope we'll get more of this beautiful white stuff. It gets less every year.

We got 3 feet of snow here last night/this morning. I want to get the first flight to Brazil, but I can't because the roads are snowbound and the airport is shut down. AND it's 7 degrees fahrenheit with 70 mph winds. Maybe some parts of the world are experiencing global warming--not here!

Here is just north of Boston (in the U.S.; not the Boston near King's Lynn! ;D) The winters here are very... trying, and I wonder if this may be my last in a cold clime. Blasphemous to say on the Korpiklaani forum, I know.

I'd prefer hanging to burning, Mr. Witchfinder. ;D I grumble like this every winter, but I never actually leave. The winter's half over anyway. Only February to go and we're in the clear...

Ah, but surely burning would keep you warm Personally I would really like a nice cold snowy winter.....just so that it doesn't last too long!! And there would have to be a warm summer too. Last year, the weather didn't seem to change all year, mild and rainy the whole time. Of course, in 2003 we had the hottest summer ever, so you just never know what it'll be like. Perhaps what I'm after is predictability...

Hiding, Talula !!!!! Why the hell are you sending all those Siberian winds to Spain !!!!! Radical change of weather here in Spain (Madrid). Saturday 17ºC, Sunday 16ºC, today 13ºC but it begun to blow, cold winds from Siberia, they say. A drastic fall of temperatures in north of Spain today that will reach the rest of the peninsule from this evening to tomorrow and will last till weekend. Temperatures are waited to fall even 15º and in the mountains of Madrid will reach surely -7ºC, while on Pirineos mountains will reach -11ºC. It's the most hard wind storm since 2001, and the most important drop of temperatures ever (known). And tomorrow I've got to work, Perkele!!!! I've been having a ride and in two hours I've noticed a hard drop of temperatures and an increasing in the winds And still it was not so fucking cold as it's gonna be tommorrow and wednesday I hate, I hate, I fucking hate winter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ahh, Dave, tu eres gallego (o madrileno)? Yo pienso que su tiempo no es muy malo, amigo! Yo creo que mi espanol es horrifico, tambien. No conozco las formas pasado or futuro, por exemple. En el pasado, yo voy a Vigo, y la gente no hablan espanol exactamente... es mas cerca de portugues, no? Galicianos? Quando yo aprendo espanol, la primera cosa que la maestra dicen: "Chicle en la basura!" Es espanol por bebes. ;D Un dia, yo espero viajar a Toledo para comprar una espada. Todo el mundo conocen que el metallo de esto ciudad es la mas fina. Pero no conocen las espadas famosas de espana. Tienes espadas similar a Excalibur o los espadas malvados de los ladrones del norte? Quando yo viajo a Barcelona, yo miro el grupo de inglaterra S-Club 7 quando ellos hacen un video. El grupo es falso, es solamente sucre, sucre, sucre... Mi amigo de Bolivia dicen: "Quando yo miro uno de mis muchachos, you hablo "Aye, chango!" Despues, el dice: "Pero si tu hablas 'chango' a un puertoriqueno o un cubano, tu eres muerte y tu vives en la sepultura!" ;D Okay, sorry Dave! I am just dusting off my Spanish. As you can see, it's in terrible shape. Maybe I will take some courses in the future to improve...

Hiding, Talula !!!!! Why the hell are you sending all those Siberian winds to Spain !!!!! Sorry, Dave, we didn't think they would fly to Spain. It's too far from Siberia Btw, neither me, nor Talyla aren't living in Siberia.
