[nq:1]I just noticed that we've had about 2 inches of snow. [/nq] The residents of Vancouver have similar problem when it snows, but today they're out golfing while we enjoy our -28'C. Do your wrmst rgrds retain their customary warmth with 2" of snow?

Do your wrmst rgrds retain their customary warmth with 2" of snow? And for whom are the less-than-wrmst-rgrds reserved?

(And, yes, I know whereof I speak. Looking at your forecast, your expecting a total accumulation of 4-8 inches. In 1979, we had about

It was snowing hard in Manchester yesterday evening as I emerged from choir rehearsal - I was quite white after walking the 200 yards to my car. We've got some here in Warrington, but it's now raining so I suppose it won't last long.

Could be. Sky News has been in a tizzy about the coming "Arctic conditions" for days now. Apparently -5C and a flurry of light snow is the new definition of "Ice Age".
