Wow! That looks amazing. Thanks for the snow - it's my first blog snow!!!
It's raining here today, and although we're in the middle of winter - it reached 25 on Wednesday (I'm talking in celsuis - I don't know whether you talk in c or in farhanheit - I don't even know how to spell that word!). It is looking like a pretty mild winter - but August is our coldest month - so time will tell. It's not that cold in Sydney though. Where Andrew is staying, there was some frost on the ground last night - but that's as cold as it gets - but never in the part of Sydney where we live.
I know this is going to sound really dumb...but is it a lot colder when it snows, as opposed to just windiness? Or when it has stopped snowing - but there is still snow on the ground?
Is it a lot colder? Well, obviously it does have to be at least freezing temperature but if it isn't somwhat below the snow will probably be wet and sticky. Good for making snowmen and having a good old snowball fight. It's not as cold but the damoness can make it feel colder and so can the "wind chill". If it is very much below freezing, say 10 or 15 degrees (-12.2 to -9.4 celsiuos) it will feel very very cold. On rare occasions it cna get below 0 degrees. That's like -17 to you. (I found a fahrenheit to celsious converter.)
It is beautiful and I do enjoy it at times but it also makes me look forward to spring and summer. Come in February, bring the boys and we'll make a snowman and so sledding.

Thanks for the snow - I'm chuffed!
It looks cold out there...
ReplyDeleteMartha...your house looks so pretty in the snow!
ReplyDelete"chuffed" What does that mean?
ReplyDeleteYUCK!!!! It might look pretty - but just remember looks are deceiving!!!!!
ReplyDeleteActually... snow's not so bad. It IS pretty and can be a lot of fun. It's the cold that I don't like. Unfortunately the two seem to go hand in hand.
ReplyDelete'chuffed' means.....pleased, thankful, feeling special...
ReplyDeleteI didn't know it was an Aussie expression, sorry!
