I love snow.
Almost as much as I love autumn. I love snow truly, deeply and madly. I do, rather literally, jump the snow. And...
IT'S SNOWING! There's no school and it's SNOWING. And real, real, soft, icy, settling snow that will stay with us throughout the next couple of days!
Snow never used to be anything special. Then I moved back to the UK, away from my chilly heartland of New Jersey, and discovered that there was no snow. For the past five years, I have seen no snow, or only pathetic excuses for it. The only one memorable event of snowiness was that of a day in February a couple of years ago. I was ill. I couldn't go out. BUT NOT TODAY! Today, I shall stride out into the snow, slip on an icy bit of road, fall over and kiss the snow. I shall get appallingly wet and shivery and probably catch a cold. That is what I will do. And it will be good.

Yep, I'm glad to see real snow here once again - it's been a while, and it's still going. It'll be a good foot deep if this keeps up. I am amazed at how unusually powdery it is though - it's like in the French or Austrian mountains. No godd for snowballs/men though :( But great for snow-angels ;)
But I know loads of people who have NEVER seen snow! They can't imagine it at all.
Trains are down and school's out!

I must beg to differ Amy. I have spent the whole morning throwing snowballs at my brother and two of my friends and I am of the oppinion that it is very good for snowballs. And we are going to build a snowman with my friends baby sister later on. She is wearing a hat with rabbit ears and looks adorable.

Maybe it's changed... it was no good last night. I'm going over the park later with Sarah and Lily (I hope), so I'll find out.

Hurrah snow! As far as I'm concerned, you can have it. We get more of it than we know what to do with in northern PA. I'll try to deflect some of ours and send it your way, okay?

Awesome! I'll be happy to receive it; I recently got in from outside, where it has been snowing for hours, and shows no sign of stopping. It's great. XD

Yea!
I made a snow angel, though I do believe that it is of the right consistency for snowballs. I went out with a friend living in the village, my younger brother and the friend's younger sister and we all went to a location known simply as 'the downs'. It's series of steep slopes - ideal for sledging. I got seriously wet though. ^ ^

We (me, Emma Warbrick, her sister Laura and Eliott) all partook in a massive snowball fight, as well as making the biggest snowballs we could. And guess what 'Ulia? It's still snowing!!

IIIIIT doesn't show signs of stopping, and I've brought some corn for... XDDDD

I'll try my hardest to deflect it towards you the next snowstorm we get. Perhaps I could send you some air-mail in a cooler?

That sounds like a good idea to me - my family have made a habit of collecting snow from each bout of snowfall, if any, each year and storing it in the freezer. The last one was probably from back in 2007...
