I just came home from university and thought, damn, I want a white christmas and not this stupid wind and rain...
And as there is not much going on the forum I thought, I'd just ask around: What's the weather like over whereever you are? chances for a white christmas? =)

I used to be schizophrenic but we are all right now!
Computer games don't affect kids: I mean, if Pacman affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkend rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetative electronic music...

Unfortunately my weather is like your weather. All there is, is rain and lots of wind. Especially today. I really don't think there will be a white christmas though. => Global warming, more cars, north and southpole are melting... 
We haven't had a real white christmas for years.

A white christmas was pretty common until a few years back, I think it was 2002/2003 when we had at "best" -50C even at our latitude..
After that, the snow and cold has come very late, sometimes not making it for christmas. This year we had early snow but that melted in a few weeks and now we have a 'heat wave'. No idea if we'll get snow for christmas.

No chance for white christmas here. Like the others said, mot even here there hasn't been a true white christmas for years... Pretty sad... I woke up tofay and outside there was and still is the biggest myst i ever saw. Not reallt a white st.nicks day but it's better than nothing.
I hate the carribean and alll tropical areas. It's always hot and the only snow you get is in the postcards.
I really envy you people that live in Scandinavia (Samppa is the only one i can think of right now) you always get snow no matter what.

Probably more of a chance than me having one...it's Summer here
Hey you don't know when the earth's climate is going to change abruptly because of pollution, aliens, unexpected comets, possible nuclear war and other stuff. So it's always a chance even there down under.

Huh, it's St. Nicks day today
I completely missed that... whoops... oh well...Tim wrote:Probably more of a chance than me having one...it's Summer here
That's a concept i can't just wrap my head around... christmas in summer...
I think I had a white christmas two years ago... or was it three? anyway, we spent a christmas holiday in denmark ang got lots of snow...
At least IF it snows, it looks extra nice at my parents cause they do not live in a city but a bit outside, so the snow does not turn gray ater 1 hours due to all the cars....

As i said the scandinavians get the best winters around (probably the canadians too but i m talking about europe here).
Snow does not turn gray in citys. Three years ago when it snowed it stayed perfectly white. Now of course it does not snow anymore...

Would you believe that 10 minutes after my last post, it came over so dark and grey here, thunder, lighting and torrential rain!!
Edit: Let me add hailstones and wind to that, lol
Edit2: 20 minutes later and its sunny and cloudless again. Good old british weather...
Edit3: We had a tornado hit London: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/6217514.stm

You have to love the Albion
In geography class we were told that the temperate oceanic climate has sudden weather changes. Never thought it could be that sudden...

all i'm gonna say is, cold and windy (20s/40s F) and fluctuating up and down a lot this last week. i'm sick of the weather where i am. hopefully in 2 weeks it'll be better, more moderate. 
(i've been here 6 years and seen snow once so i'm thinking it's not very likely i'm gonna see it again this year)
cheers!
(oh, and i HATE shopping (unless it's for ME
) - how about you guys? ).

Isn't it funny how the word 'politics' is made up of the words 'poli' meaning 'many' in Latin, and 'tics' as in 'bloodsucking creatures? - unknown
