oh ye weather gods

[Moriath]

I went on a school trip in circa 1985 and it snowed on my birthday. Which is today. So nothings changed much. Westher is as weather does.

 

[Lamp]

Happy birthday..!

 

[fettoken]

Yeah, happy birthday! What number?

 

[Tom]

I was out running last night, I can tell you, running with no cover through hailstones with forked lightning visible a mile or two off your shoulder is a scary experience. I almost jumped into the trailer of a parked truck (it had its back door open to show it was empty while the driver slept).

The weather's a disgrace. It's almost May. Which is practically June. So where's my 34 degrees, blue skies, and long legs wobbly booby cleavage?

Spoilers ahead: England is not Tenerife.

 

[Moriath]

Yeah, happy birthday! What number?

43

[Moriath]

Sunday BBQ cancelled. Fucking pussies.

 

[Raven]

Colder than a witches tit tonight. Heating is on.

 

[Moriath]

[Shagrat]

My cousin's picked a good time to be in Florida for a week hasn't he........

 

[Edmond]

Not put mine on yet, trying to hold out as long as i can

 

[Lakih]

My cousin's picked a good time to be in Florida for a week hasn't he........

According to my mother in law (who is also there), "It's just a little bit of wind and rain"...

 

[Raven]

-3 when I got to the car. I was wearing shorts a week ago ffs.

 

[Ormorof]

You going by car you can still wear shorts!

 

[TdC]

yeah 2C in NL today. turned my heating on on Saturday

 

[Yoni]

Proper winter this year

 

[Scouse]

Wish it'd snow properly for like a month here

 

[fettoken]

Jeesus! There's so much snow in just two days causing widespread traffic gridlock. Buses are stuck in the snow, subways are working at minimum capacity and tram's are barely working at all.

Are we hiring people with no prior experience to snow?! We measured at least half a meter snow yesterday and it's been snowing sparingly though out the night.

Still not comparable to the chaos that ensues in the UK where a couple of cm of snow causes widespread chaos and people actually perishing. I did read somewhere that you guys did hire Finnish people to clear snow at runways.. Smart move!

 

[Raven]

Not sure why, its not snowed properly in years.

Apparently, according to the experts, its going to be cold this winter and doom will ensue.

Bit like every year at around this time then but replace cold with a bit chilly out and replace chaos with idiots who don't know how to operate when its not summer.

Every year I hope for a decent amount of snow so I can't get out the village, every year we get fuck all.

 

[Tom]

BROKEN BR....sweden?

 

[Raven]

Apparently the first "named" storm of the season is about to hit us. d000m and so on.

Storm Angus: South-east England braced for 80mph winds - BBC News

Will give the neckbeards something to tweet about, I suppose. 80?! 8 0 !

That's nearly 90!

 

[Moriath]

I like stormy nights. Can snuggle up inside and listen to it going some

 

[caLLous]

I saw the weather before MotD and I thought to myself that a certain somebody was bound to have a moan about it and what do you know...

 

[Raven]

Funny, because as I typed it I though some lonely little stalker would have to comment about my comment, despite being repeatedly told that I am not interested in them or what they have to say.

 

[caLLous]

Well, you're nothing if not predictable.

 

[Raven]

Lovely today, pub garden weather.

 

[TdC]

had lunch outside in Brussels yesterday. brilliant sunshine, 16C, didn't have to wear a jacket all day. back in the NL....meh.

 

[caLLous]

It's incredibly mild for the time of year, 20c here today. I expect we'll have a disastrous Spring to pay for it but we do dearly need the rain.
