    Oh fcuking great, last winter was awfull. No bloody water, broken wrist. Who in their right mind likes that weather?.

    the great thing about freezing temps is that we have calm and dry so we can walk in that fine crisp air, only requirement, cover well, and have good walking boots, also this kind of weather kill off all germs, so if the swine flu should break out this year or any other type of bad flu, this will clean the air of and get rid of alot of that kind of stuff going around, ---- i sometimes see people spitting on pavement also dogs peeing so a hard dose of frost would be good for this kind of thing, also it is a great time to put out bedclothes kill distmites just open windows and swithc off heating for the few hrs

    same here, last winter, no water and I broke my ankle, needed some screws putting in..

    this winter, I just stayed in and didn't even try to venture out for fear of slipping on the ice.. oh, and we had 12 days of no water

    A dormant volcano off the coast of Africa sounds like a lovely place to live if you don't count the chance that half of it might fall into the ocean causing a mega tsunami.

    You literally took the words from my mouth. Every disaster movie has the guy who knows what he is talking about being laughed at by the masses.

    • Fur trappers reported that southern Hudson Bay remained frozen for about 3 weeks longer each spring.
    • Fishermen reported large amounts of sea ice floating in the North Atlantic.
    • British people saw Eskimos paddling canoes off the coast of England.
    • Alpine (mountain) glaciers grew larger. In some cases, the ice engulfed mountain villages.
    • Winters were longer and growing seasons shorter according to tree ring data and records of cherry tree flowering.
    • Wet weather caused disease that affected people, animals and crops including the bubonic plague (also called the Black Death). This disease killed more than a third of Europeans.
    • Farms and villages in Northern Europe were deserted because the farmers couldn’t grow crops in the cooler climate. During the harshest winters, bread had to be made from the bark of trees because grains would no longer grow.
    • Limited crops and unhealthy livestock caused famine in areas of northern and Eastern Europe. Unlike today, there was no way to transport food around the world to areas where crops had failed and people were hungry.
    • Canals and rivers around Europe were frozen completely for long stretches of time, thats where you get your Dickensian white christmas paintings from.
    • Severe storm systems were recorded, costing Germany and the Netherlands sections of coastline permanently.


    I wonder did this happen over the last few weeks?

    I meant warmed up in the figurative sense. I actually mean colder. That's what the exclamation mark was for. Sorry, ill use a smiley face or something next time.
