Over here in Iceland, I find it funny remembering and looking at how the Irish and British react to snow.

There is no such thing as a snow day here, you get to work and that is that! I walk to work, and have walked through some mighty hard blizzards! It is just expected of you.
BUT, we don't even get that much snow. It will snow one day and that snow will stay there for like a month and get so icy you break your back every day sliding to work!

Winter studded tires are mandatory here from Nov- March.

It is of course weather, but no doubt inspired by global warming. Throwing the weather off so much. We had our mildest winter in years over here.

Here's a nice photo that was in my local paper this week...



It's of my local area last week, once the snow had started to melt.

So you know what's what:
The dark shape at the bottom left is the Queen Mary reservoir (which supplies a large amount of London's water)
The lines going all the way across the top are part of Heathrow Airport
And I live at the bottom near enough in the middle, in that little triangle of roads (with quite a large patch of unmelted snow to the left of it lol, because that's where fields, the common and the gravel pits are).
