Saw a report yesterday that October snow cover across Canada is unsually widespread and deep, translating into a possibly more snow across New York.

Weather is normal here in Belgium.  If it were August !!

Yesterday it was 26° C (normal should be 14° C).  We are braking records on a daily basis (warmest month ever, driest month ever, hottest 16th October ever, ...)
A summer like this hasn't occurred ever !

So autumn still has to start or maybe we go from summer directly to winter ...
Last year the winter started for real in February !!

I saw all that cold weather news yesterday while I was in my lounge chair in the pool sipping a cold one. Sounds like you guys better find your Uggs and get them ready.

Tough. Where do you go to buy new, Uggs-R-Us? Or are they more of a, 'you gotta know a guy' kind of thing? It's starting to cool off down here in Fla. too. I dropped an ice cube the other day and it actually made it all the way to the ground before it melted.  :o

We've gotten a ridiculous amount of rain this fall. Here in Oklahoma, whenever that's happened in past years it was followed by record snowfall over the winter 4 out of 5 times. Hoo boy.....

Also, guys, come on. I drove the ball straight onto the green -- or onto the ice-covered pond perhaps.

How is it that I have not yet seen EVEN ONE Arnold Freeze meme yet.

Snow is just rain that hangs around longer. Like months longer.

Not true. I can tell it's Fall. Instead of the color of the leaves changing, the color of the license plates does.  :peace:

Post by: Sir Slash on October 20, 2018, 01:50:27 PM
No, but they drop people off. Usually very slowly... in front of you... while you're waiting to park. Then they never move, they just sit there waiting for the person to come back.  :pullhair:

That's when you prop your cardboard cutout of Cap'n Lou Albano up in the passenger seat and start laying on the horn:

Well, so far it seems like the most chilling sounds of Winter 2018 are air raid sirens for tornadoes....



That was just Dec 1st. There have been more recently.
