"In Celtic nations such as Ireland (using the Irish calendar) and in Scandinavia, the winter solstice is traditionally considered as midwinter, with the winter season beginning 1 November, on All Hallows, or Samhain. Winter ends and spring begins on Imbolc, or Candlemas, which is 1 or 2 February."

I've always been told November, December, January for as long as I can remember. Had an arguement over it on another forum sometime last year so went and looked in to it. Turned out we were both right as he was American and thus had different seasons than we do.chrisjdoran wrote: »Same here, if it has changed since then we just found out i guess

I've grown up with the same view of the seasons, February 1st is the beginning of Spring, and if google and wiki agree then it must be right lol0 -

Chris himself could have written the nonsense in the Wiki article! :rolleyes:
Hey I never write nonsense
This lack of snow is making some people tetchy lol
Seems like one last chance effort may be on the cards according to Mr. Snow, M.T.C..
"OUTLOOK ... A somewhat colder trend should follow this mid-week storm front and it could be almost a wintry mix situation by the weekend of 10th and 11th, on the current guidance."
Oh yeah baby, "wintry mix"0 -

"TONIGHT ... Showers becoming sleety and some snow appearing on higher terrain, later mixing in near sea level in east, some accumulations of 3-5 cms possible by morning ..."

No frost, no snow, no wintry mix. A pathetic 0.4mm of rain after midnight failed to leave any trace of white even on top of Two/Three Rock (over 500m asl).
Temp hit 9c in bright sunshine today and everyone saying how cold it is!

Now...I remember when we had a real 'wintry mix' in March.....
...and this was five days after the snow fell and was getting the full March sun from cloudless skies - no need to get up before dawn to see some phantom spots of graupel before it melts 0 -

Somehow I missed that post by MT!! Thanks eskimocat!
Now, don't blame the production process, it's flawless - blame my suppliers of raw materials for making the snow - my Eastern European suppliers have been very stingy with their supply of cold, an essential ingredient in the process...bought mountains of cold back in 2010 when it was going cheap, even agreed supply & rates for the long-term future.. but.. the price of cold has since risen despite the agreement in place... so with no cold, making snow is like trying to make an omelette without eggs..
Anyway...Now that both of ye are in here with me, you can help with production .. just look at the factory as it stands now, even Timmy has quit!
