Snow. Snow. And some more snow.

I imagine there will be a lot of people snowed in tomorrow.

Suppose that's good for people who have to get up for work in the morning... its a good excuse to be late!

But for those poor sods working now, I hope we can make it home in the morning!

What's it like where you are? Snow here is already up to over my shoes and I can't make out the road or the pavement. Bums.

BUT YEAH SNOWWW!!

Everything looks so perty. If I wasn't stuck here, I'd be in the same mood as you Sorsie!

I might go out and make a snowman in the car-park for all the corporate bods to marvel at on their arrival in the morning :D

We have a little bit of soft snow here in Surrey. My sister has just made a little snowman. She's even put a little hat, a carrot, two sticks for arms and little stones for the mouth on it. Luckily for me I don't have uni until the afternoon. Unluckily for me it's at 5pm :(

I still welcome the lovely snow, I just wish it would snow on Christmas Day.

As much as I love how good snow looks and all that, I have to go out tomorrow (and it's not for myself). It seems like we won't be able to drive in it so I might have to prepare for a walk of about 40 minutes in thick snow. Then there's the 40 minutes walk home. I guess I ought to find my gloves now... :/

It's been snowing heavily for about 1hour or hour and a half.. It's getting so think.. I can't wait to plaster my friends in snowballs or make a massive snowman tomorrow... if it's quite thick tomorrow then I'm not going to college (I'll say I had transport issues :P)

Hmm.. where abouts in South East England are you? XD
I have a feeling we're close :P
You can PM if you don't want to answer here.
Or you can just ignore it altogether, 'cause it is personal XD

And I like snow tooooo.. but I don't like it the day after when it goes all slushy and slippery :(

Um.. I'm in Woking, but I've just looked at the window again and there's loads of snow
I hope my sister's snowman survives the night.

>.> Walking would take like.. 45 minutes.. :P and knowing my luck I'd fall into a hole or go the back route and get covered in mud and snow and slush.. So yeah. >.> I don't think so.. :P I think I'd rather bike and risk it, fall over then call it a day and go and attack my friends. :P

Mmm.. it's just started slowing down.... Hmm -goes out again-

Ooooh I just went outside... it's sooooo pretty! I didn't feel like spoiling the snow by walking on it... but I did so anyway

* TempusFugit is not a happy ticky


I don't like snow at all... nasty, white, fluffy, cold stuff.

* TempusFugit ponders getting a mahoosive hair dryer and blowing it all out the way


I am dreading going out driving in it tomorrow... no doubt there will be some idiots out on the road who (a) drive at 5mph or (b) drive at stupid speeds and lose control of their car

* TempusFugit hibernates

Well.....with all the snow your about to get i'm sure you don't want to hear what the weather is like here in CA! =P Lets just say it's not snowing and I doubt it will any time soon...or if it does it wouldn't be enough to stick! Hehe. =) And...I don't envy you!!!

I'm supposed to be driving my mother to the doctors in the next street tomorrow morning but looking at the snow out there right now I think I'll just hand her a shovel and go back to bed! No way I'm risking driving in it knowing the lunatics around here (other than me, obviously)

It's been some years since North London's had a blanket like this, least not that I recall, and it's great to just watch it falling. I love snow, always have, but preferably when viewed through glass

I figure my 20-25min drive is going to take well over an hour... tested the snow underfoot and its icey as hell. Hope Highways is on the ball, but even if they are I've seen the plough dude go past about 3 times... seems to settle as fast as they can clear it.

This is dumb. It's just a sorry drizzle in Aberdeen every now and again when the weather feels like doing something. Otherwise, it's just cold. Blah.

I can't believe I'm up at 4am o.0 and I'm not the only one storm

Thick snow outside here now. I would go outside and test the depth but it's 4am and it's gonna be very cold outside. It's not very often you get to look at settled snow. It looks very picturesque. I do love watching snow falling, but I feel for the Monday morning travellers going to work/school/college etc.

Its above my ankles... I should give up smoking, its bad for my trousers.

I don't imagine there will be many travellers to college, perhaps a few more going to work...

But I am sure as ♥♥♥♥ going to be travelling home. IF I can find my car that is!
