It's snowing now. Fuck!

I have been a long time snow hata but strangely enough although there has been several snowstorms this season it hasn't fazed me much.

― Nicole (Nicole), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 03:21 (twenty-one years ago) link

It's snowing here too.

― Ally (mlescaut), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 03:23 (twenty-one years ago) link

New York, right? In which case, here = there.

I assure you the white stuff is snow:

(and there's some barely visible here. God knows what Manchester will be like)

We've had a few flurries in London this morning. Not enough to settle though.

― RickyT (RickyT), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 10:19 (twenty-one years ago) link

Snow settled in glorious South London this morning, but who can blame it for not settling in Shepherd's Bush?

― Tim (Tim), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 10:21 (twenty-one years ago) link

its not settled properly in london, my street has hardly any...but out here in thames valley it has settled for sure!

― gareth (gareth), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 10:23 (twenty-one years ago) link

some snow has settled here! It's beautiful and it fills my heart with joy, I want at least two months of this weather!

― jel -- (jel), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 10:24 (twenty-one years ago) link

It was lovely in walthamstow, and it's even started to stick in farringdon. Well, the pavements are white in places.

― Vicky (Vicky), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 10:25 (twenty-one years ago) link

it's settled in ladbroke grove. rah

― Alan (Alan), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 10:26 (twenty-one years ago) link

Streatham was a winter wonderland at seven this morning - you could have skied down Leigham Court Road!

― Marcello Carlin, Tuesday, 7 January 2003 10:39 (twenty-one years ago) link

Bah, West London suXors.

― RickyT (RickyT), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 10:43 (twenty-one years ago) link

Uxbridge and the Chilterns are lovely and white. But it's melting quickly.

― chris (chris), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 10:43 (twenty-one years ago) link

RICKYT! i expell you to the southern wastes. get thee to a tubeless nightmare. anyway, ladbroke grove = snowy and = w london, so not so suxory.

― Alan (Alan), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 10:45 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yeah, from the train today, loads of snow, in South London, none central.

(I'm going back North today. Why else would I be up at 8am to post non-pictures of snow?)

Its coming down something rotten outside.

― Ed (dali), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 09:34 (twenty-one years ago) link

Your Ladbroke Grove looks turn me on, yeah! It's cute that you guys say 'settled'.

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 09:44 (twenty-one years ago) link

The snow is beginning to stick in Clerkenwell, which I thought impossible. The up side of this is of course not being in minnesota, where lazy mother tried to persuade me and my sis that we were born with shovels in hand. Beatch.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 09:54 (twenty-one years ago) link

Even the grottiest parts of South London look pretty under a couple of inches of snow. I feel like I'm in Fargo at the moment. Snow: I love it!

― Alfie (Alfie), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 10:01 (twenty-one years ago) link

Acton is a Winter Wonderland this morn.

― Andrew L (Andrew L), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 10:04 (twenty-one years ago) link

SNOW! Beautiful snow in Ealing! Wahoo!!! :) :) :)

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 10:07 (twenty-one years ago) link

Shepherds Bush was developing a nice even covering when I left for work this morning. Marble Arch is looking quite white as well.

― RickyT (RickyT), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 10:16 (twenty-one years ago) link

I made it snow by telling my newly arrived from Brazil tutor that "It never snows in London".

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 10:31 (twenty-one years ago) link

Bah, Streatham was just slushy this morning - it's neatly all gone :-(

Weird how Acton, Shep Bush and Ladbroke Grove all got snowed on, and yet Hammersmith (which is where I work) is completely snow-free. Must be something to do with the one-way system or the Talgarth flyover.

It's coming down heavier than ever!

It's like being in one of those Xmas snow globes!

Wahoo!!

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 10:58 (twenty-one years ago) link

SNOWBALL FIGHT NOW! outside everyone london...

― Alan (Alan), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 10:59 (twenty-one years ago) link

Bah, Streatham was just slushy this morning - it's neatly all gone :-(

I'm hoping that it will have had a couple of inches by the time I get back. Where I work (near Croydon) it's actually got to that crunchy stage.

― Alfie (Alfie), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 11:04 (twenty-one years ago) link

ilford is totally covered, though i think it's moved off now. i can just about see Canary Wharf again now.

― katie (katie), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 11:06 (twenty-one years ago) link

Definitely snowing in Hammersmith now, presumably set off by me saying that Hammersmith was snow-free hah!

― Marcello Carlin, Wednesday, 8 January 2003 11:11 (twenty-one years ago) link

Looks like a couple of inches in the oval though its much slower now.

― Tom (Groke), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 11:16 (twenty-one years ago) link

I have been hit by 4 snowballs already. Each time I was carrying stuff & couldn't retaliate.

Nice students.

― Mooro (Mooro), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 12:13 (twenty-one years ago) link

Our Aussie IT support guy is goggle-eyed with wonder at it all. Crystal Palace (high ground, natch) got an inch or so yesterday, was still -1C when we left this morning, so at this rate, I'll be sleeping in the office.

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 12:29 (twenty-one years ago) link

The snow has broken your email, David.

― N. (nickdastoor), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 12:32 (twenty-one years ago) link

It's lovely. Coming down faster and heavier in Crouch End. I love snow. I think I am much better suited to cold climates than hot ones.

― Anna (Anna), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 12:38 (twenty-one years ago) link

If it keeps going at this rate I may never make it back. Two inches and counting.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 12:39 (twenty-one years ago) link

Are you agitating you penis?

― N. (nickdastoor), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 12:46 (twenty-one years ago) link

Sorry, your penis.

― N. (nickdastoor), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 12:47 (twenty-one years ago) link

Frankly it's gopping out there. I always forget that I dont actually like snow until the walk to the garage turns into a constant struggle to stay upright.

― Tom (Groke), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 12:48 (twenty-one years ago) link

WHo are you calling a penis. Oh, my penis.

Come on Nick, you know my penis could never make it to two inches.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 12:48 (twenty-one years ago) link

What is this 'gopping' that Tom is trying to slip into language without anyone noticing?

― N. (nickdastoor), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 12:49 (twenty-one years ago) link
