Er -

Excuse me - we are still waiting for our snow - I know we did get a light shower at the beginning of January, but since then, nothing at all.

Other people seem to have been served up all our share and we aren't even getting frosts now.

I have seen crocuses and some shrubs in bloom already, and had to watch TV news showing people having fun in their snow - which I suspect was really some of ours which had somehow been diverted.

Now Scotland has got loads of snow again, and we get a shower - of rain.

Sigh

Anne the Pleater :ootd:

Sorry about that, I thought it was 1st march when I posted it !!!

[Downunder Kilt]

For the prosecution - But what if it were the other way around 25c - 35c
minimal rain, no snow, blue skies
For the defence - then you would be in Southern Australia
Bring on more February's (perhaps another 11 in a row)

[The Barry]

Yes, here in the PNW, we didn't even get winter. Looks like the rivers will be running a bit low this year.

The greatest crime the authorities commit against humanity is when, once in every four years, they add an extra day to February! It should be done in June! Or we could have a July 32nd! Or an August -1!
