Michlo Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Well I'm from England so I had plenty of them growing up. I live in Los Angeles now though so very rarely see it. :) I wouldn't mind it for a day but not something akin to last year's mess over there. i have never experenced a "summery" christmas. i have family in spain, and my brother visited them during christmas. i am way more "adaptive" than he is, and he is very bound to traditions, so to him it was near-traumatizing to have a christmas with heat and sun.i think i could handle it, but it would have course not be "the same" :D It definitely took some getting used to, mate. heh. I've been here 20 years next July 1st and I still don't think I'm completely there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrill606 Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I live in Georgia and we don't get snow until January or Febuary. And even then we might get 2 snow days. Sometimes it doesn't snow for a whole year where I live in Georgia but its snowed the last few years and I hope it does this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we get snow though, its mostly ice :(. I've been to NYC and Chicago during the winter and I wish we got snow like that down here. I guess were lucky to get any at all.

Illiad86 Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 No snow, just fricking cold :( I'm actually surprised it hasn't snowed at all yet. We normally get a few inches before Christmas...so maybe no White Christmas this year :( dont give up!one thing ive learned about snow: once it decides to fall, it can slam half a metre down upon a city in a single night :] lol true, especially here. Last year was horrible, every other week we got a foot of snow. Maybe we might get lucky this year and not get as much. I love snow but I sure do hate it when there's a few feet on the ground and the city I live in always "runs out of salt" before winter ends. :rolleyes: two years back it snowed almost a metre in a night, i opened the door, and had to wade up to my waist in snowi could only laugh at the absurdity of it :D my metric is pretty bad (I really don't understand why the U.S.DOESN'T teach it)....a metre is about 3 feet? Where are you located? 3 feet is pretty normal in winter here. Average snowfall for our state is quite a few metres then :P I remember one night we had if I'm right about the metre calculations, we got 3-4 metres in one night! Crazy blizzard...the whole city was a ghost town. All you would hear is snow plows and people shoveling lol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
