Not Real Snow

This is an entirely irrelevant post. You have been warned!


It has been snowing here all day, but there is no snow on the ground. It’s not even lying on the dustbins, or the grass, or my car.


That is not real snow and it should be banned!

Richard This winter has been terrible for fake snow. I live in Wisconsin (USA) and we normally get real snow but this year we haven't had any more than 3" of fake snow at any one time! The kid I pay to shovel my walk is going broke this year.
Damnit! If its gonna be cold we demand Real Snow!

Odd, but often true, factoid. The colder it gets, the less it seems to really snow. Mind you, this has been one of the coldest winters I can think of in recent times. We've had a couple of freak very snowy winters, but I don't think it was as consistently cold here even then.

And this is Manchester (UK) I'm talking about! We specialise in lousy winters.

Richard I though England specialized in lousy summers? Didn't know the winters qualified as crap as well. No wonder Britain went off and set up an overseas Empire, in mostly nicer places. I've spent some time in Manchester years ago. Didn't pay a lot of attention to the weather, it was autumn and I enjoyed a few pubs, most notably a place called Tommy Ducks, now closed I understand.

Niall Teasdale Not heard of that one, so probably.

Britain does lousy everything, but we usually do temperate but wet winters. And temperate but wet summers, come to think of it.
