h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Dammit it, living on the south coast and by the see means no snow has settled and I am still in work even though virtually no one else seems to be.... grrrr.....

Marple, Stockport 1.20pm. Snowing again, over frozen snow. Should be fun getting to work later...

It has been snowing on and off in Essex. It's snowing lightly to moderately now and some flakes have been quite big and remind me of falling dandruff.

Snow is also referred in some cultures as the old lady in the sky shaking her eiderdown.

The h2g2 team is back up to full affect today, having battled the not very considerable snows of London to get in to the office. The roofs of White City are covered in a thin layer of snow, but the paths are treacherously icy. Heard someone on the radio remarking that the nation is tottering around like Hercule Poirot at the moment, and that sums it up perfectly.

More snow -we've had snow, even on the beach for the last 3 or 4 days...and now it's snowing some more

Since I last posted, we've had more snow.. I haven't been out today, but my brother said that due to snow falling on ice, it's a bit of a 'mare to get around . Nice thing to look forward to when going to work tomorrow!

Its still snowing here in Fife, but just small scattered showers. This winter reminds me of the ones we had when I was a nipper, as Ive seen it snowing right up until May!!

We all had a white Christmas, but we are becoming to get sick of the snow now

Smudger.

Herne Bay Kent 8.1.10
8.45am

Yet more snow.

Another 2 or 3 inches worth fell overnight, and going by the sky and the continual whirling haze of dry powdery snow going past the windows, I reckon we're in for a complete day of it, with another few inches today.

no new snow, as the forecaster said, so thats two nights, they got it wrong for my area of yorkshire, but could mean anytime in the next few days the missing snow will hit us with a vengence.

It was sunny about half an hour ago, then after my neighbour started playing Little Boots tracks from a cd, the sun disappeared and it has clouded over. It looks like there will be some snow.

The temperature now is 1 °C and the wind speeds are 22 mph NNE with gusts of 37 mph.

In Michigan the sun is not up yet (8AM Eastern Standard Time)
The snow has stopped (about 6 inches) and so cold my car won't start.

It looks very pretty, but please stop now!

Key West, Florida, 10 Jan 2010, 0930 EST
It snowed and sleeted at Disney World in Orlando yesterday for the first time ever. Our temperature is 44 degrees F, which ties the record low for Key West. The wind is out of the north at 30 knots, and that gives us a wind chill factor of 37. The forecast low for tonight is 37 degrees F, which will be an all-time record.

Did I mention that most houses do not have heat here?

Well, it's sunny, hot and 43C here in suburban Melbourne, Australia! Expected overnight minimum of 27C and a top on Tuesday of 36C. But it is mid Summer here!

Misty/cloudy skies and the temperature is a barmy 2°C and is forecasted to be sleeting by now but nothing has come and there could be light snow showers by 9:00. Accuracy of weather forecast 50/50 chance of happening. The wind speeds are 9 E and generally snow comes with N/NE winds.
