What is your favorite weather?

[Charias]

Random, I know, but weather plays a major part in our lives. In dry, arid countries a rainstorm can save lives and mean hope for the future, while a hurricane in the US could devestate whole communities.

Some of us love the feeling of sun on our skin, while others love playing in the snow. Some of us dance in the rain, while other slide on the ice. Some of us, including me, love the thrill of hurricanes and tornadoes (as long as we're safe in the basement!) as they savage the land above.

(I bet you can tell I'm in a speech writing mood!)

So, what's your favorite weather?

Snow! it snowed yesterday but it didn't settle, and if It had snowed today, then it would ahve settled. It was so cold!! It was cold enough to make the water that condensed on the inside of the bus windows turn to ice!! (we don't get heaters so we freeze to death)

[Charias]

You should come to Canada, we have 6 feet of snow here! I just watched a giant scary looking snowblower clear off the road! And it was -35 here yesterday, it's nasty walking home from school in that!

I wish....

[Charias]

I wish....

Lol but then again here you have to wear big marshmallow suits to go outside and there is a high risk of hypothermia and frostbite! I'm terrified of frostbite!

I think in eastern europe, (past austria) about 36 have died from a sudden cold snap, and we're sharing Scandinavia's weather system. You can tell I'm english, cos everyone there has a thing for the weather. (fits a sterotype for once - I don't drink tea)

I like thunderstorms, but the last one we had was around this time last year, even though my region is meant to be quite good for thunderstorms. Never been in a tornado, even though I live in the most tornadoey country. Um don't have Hurricanes, cos I live in a Temperate, not tropical climate. but we had a windstorm a few weeks back, where in scotland it got over 100mph! most schools got closed up there, still in the south of england it was quite hard to walk in the wind! XD

I'm from England too! I immigrated here to Canada last summer! Probably explains why I'm so excited about all of the snow!

[meowool]

haha lol!
Forecast for ?????????(nearest weather station thingy to me)
Is it's gonna be cold but sunny! (-6) so if it decides to rain...it'll turn to snow!!

But the reason why we get such pathetic weather is cos of the Gulf stream, cos with out it, we'd have the same climate as south canada as we are on the same latitiude as them.

[Charias]

Yes, because the Gulf Stream affects eastern Canada too and it's really mild there. I live in northern Ontario, which is sort of in the middle of Canada, y'know, where all of the beautiful forests and lakes are? It's epic. I love the random bears and wolves and moose you get wandering around the most though!
