How are things where you are?

Just the usual grey damp stuff going on in Edinburgh.
I wouldn't even say it was notably cold yet.

It snowed while I had the dogs out in the park yesterday. No sledging yet though, 'cause it didn't stick.

The roads weren't icy this morning. We had about an hour when it was war & sunny today - the rest of the time it's been cold, but not unseasonably so - the sky went black for a bit & we had hail.

Yeah we had a few flakes yesterday morning but they melted before landing.
Sorry to hear you're in a sunny war zone Gilly. Stay safe girl!

Lots of snow here, the park has been full of kids sleighing, snow-balling, and building snowmen.

It's lovely. Gonna be -4 tonight apparently.

We had a light covering overnight, but it melted this afternoon. No snow forecast for the rest of the week and it's only -2 tonight.

Yeah well, I think I'll survive it.

Anyway, you're a ray of sunshine, Feather.

Brill - have you got a sledge, Jhado?

Nah, it got broke last year

It's lovely outside now, all white and twinkly, and you can smell everyones fires burning.

It's brilliant when it's like that. So beautiful, and your cheeks tingle when you come into the war house. You're an engineer, aren't you? I' sure you could improvise with the manufacture of a sled.

I'm a bit jealous that you're getting the snow and it's dodging us jhado. Have fun.

Snowed heavy here early this morning, enough for the school bus to be cancelled so daughters been home all day. It had more or less all melted by lunchtime though.
Apparently, we're getting a tonne of the stuff tonight as it's going to snow right through from around midnight until 7'ish tomorrow morning. If that's the case, my little one won't likely be at school the rest of the week as my roads noitorious for blocking. Temperatures -4 at the moment.

Some snow here yesterday (its not a common occurrence in Manchester), melted by today.

Now just cold & damp - the usual.

A wee bit frosty tonight but spare a thought for those in LA
Struggling in 55f / 12.5C temps, poor things.

It's cold here, and we're supposed to get a bad night, but by gum, it was really nice & sunny again for a few hours today!

It was lovely here today too, sunny, blue-skys and no breeze. Minus 5 tonight though.

Only -3 expected up here.
If this keeps up I'll need to break out the factor 50 sunscreen.

I'l bet you haven't put your vest on yet?

Are you insane man!?

It gets down to around -50 in Siberia in winter... they'd be "-4? Pffft"
