Feb. 3rd, 2009 09:33 pmThankfully, the forecast overnight freeze didn't happen here. I know there are still parts of the country that have snow and ice, but there really was nothing on my car this morning other than a thin frost on the windscreen! So that was good. I didn't have to drive to work feeling as though I was taking my life into my hands. No, I do that in other ways!
My "other" school was also one of the few that was open yesterday, and the kids are still moaning about the lack of a snow day, and hoping desperately for more snow. I don't suppose I can blame them in a way - it's not often we get snow at all, let alone enough for a decent snowball fight and a few snowmen, so maybe it would have been better to let them get it out of their system rather than have most of them grumbling and pretty much unable to focus on anything else. Not that that's a new thing for a lot of them, but still...
But it looks like that's it for us this year. Just wait, I reckon in a couple of weeks time, we'll be in the middle of a February heat-wave like we were a couple of years ago. That's how stupid the weather is over here. And then we'll have Arctic conditions again in May.
