Snoozin Member # 6244	posted Or wherever you are posting from? Much too early for snow here, daggit.
FairyDust Member # 7138	posted Just a few flurries, no snow. I kind of want it to snow. I like all 4 seasons and can't wait for the start of each new one. Earlier in November it was 83 degrees, what a change.

Snoozin Member # 6244	posted Yes, I love the change in seasons....I get tired of each and always looking forward to the new.... And yes, Tiger, it's freezing! Do they say this in Egypt? Or anywhere? Here we say the first cold snap hurts the worst because our blood is thin from the warm weather. It has to thicken up and then we will be able to tolerate the cold better. ??? Weird.
Snoozin Member # 6244	posted Well I'm about to venture out into the chilly windy snow to walk my dog....the only disadvantage to living in a high rise...
KeepinItReal Member # 7946	posted Snow? For real!?! It's beautiful though. I'm driving over the mountains to my parents this weekend but the passes over are always horrible because of the snow. I've had some real close calls. I love snow, but hate driving in it. It's good I have front wheel drive, I need all the help I can get with me driving. It's cold here in Portland but clear skies.
KeepinItReal Member # 7946	posted If only we were like the eskimos, all barrell chested and had brown fat this cold wouldn't be a problem. Hey Snoozin, are you and Monday going to make snow angels?
Snoozin Member # 6244	posted Nah, it's that wet clunky useless snow. I like driving in snow. I just don't like it when other people drive at the same time as me. This new place I live -- has REALLY steep hills..tons of them before I get out to the beltway.....I wonder if I will be forced to betray my beliefs and buy an SUV....well, there are hybrids available now.
Snoozin Member # 6244	posted Bwaahahahah! I was going to tell you I'm drinking a cup of Pacific Chai to warm up...first time I had chai was in Santa Cruz and Capitola. LOVED it. And a lot of the stuff here comes from CA and OR. BUT. This Pacific Chai is made in Midlothian VIRGINIA. Liars!

My fiance has one of those super-heavy thick down ski jackets that he wears ALL the time here. It's more appropriate for Maine weather....not here in the mid-Atlantic states. But he is cold all the time. Egypt's winter sounds like a pleasant, crisp fall day here....I'm sad I won't get to go this year to find out for myself.
newcomer Member # 1056	posted Maybe I've got cold blood, but I'm wearing a fleece in the evenings on top of a sweatshirt, with a thermal vest underneath and that's when I'm indoors! I've also been using an electric blanket for 2 weeks now!!! It's nice outside, but inside its getting cold now.
Pink Lily Member # 3567	posted Hi all, it started snowing here in this part of Germany about three hours ago and it is freeeezing!!!! Funny, today is Thanksgiving Day also. The kids are estatic because this means for tomorrow "fun in the snow".
Shareen Member # 989	posted Its bitterly cold here in the UK too. And snow is already falling in Scotland and is expected to make its way south overnight. Not sure how far south it will get, but its sure cold!
MyKingdomForATaba2Koshari Member # 8356	posted I heard there's the ultimate storm (12 on the scale) in the UK & Scotland, and it's on its way to here. We have the weather alarm on. Whatever the bug that means.

Snoozin Member # 6244	posted quote: Originally posted by MyKingdomForATaba2Koshari: ya mama The storm has arrived. Sounds like a hungry godzilla! ??? What kind of storm? Rain or snow? We are just having horrific wind right now.....and COLD!
KeepinItReal Member # 7946	posted We're having heavy rains here and it's cold. Dumping snow in the mountains. I'm not looking forward to driving over the mountains tomorrow night.
NourHayati Member # 5507	posted It has been raining for 56 hours constantly here in Athens and it is very humid outside. I also miss Egypt
7ayat Member # 7043	posted hey guys the weather in egypt is warm, sunny, and cheerful! just perfect
Pink Lily Member # 3567	posted quote: Originally posted by 7ayat: hey guys the weather in egypt is warm, sunny, and cheerful! just perfect After lunch we will take the kids out in the snow - and I don't have boots! I am not a winter fan, snow around Christmas time is great but thats about it for me. Wish I was in Egypt......
AndreAhmed Member # 9277	posted I went to the swimmin pool yesterday

MyKingdomForATaba2Koshari Member # 8356	posted quote: Originally posted by AndreAhmed: I went to the swimmin pool yesterday Well since you've started teasing, I also went to the swimming pool here in the cold Holland.. But the pool where I went was indoors and warmed You're probably not teased at all are yah
Serendipity Member # 7211	posted here is still rain.. well with this rain.. there will be swimming pools everywhere! well Mykingdom, you ppl have some common sense, norwegian tend to go swimming, in the middle of the winter, when its somewhere minus 10 and guess what go swimming outside, in the ocean! IN THEIR BIKINIS!!

IN THEIR BIKINIS!! I know! The Dutch also start the new year by taking a dip into the North Sea. Getting a hole in my head sounds more pleasant!
kaldoais Member # 8386	posted It snowed here too, damnit! We got about 1.5" on Wednesday. It's extremely cold here too, it's 21 degrees here today. For our Egyptian friends that would be -6 celcius. Too damn early for this!!!!
kaldoais Member # 8386	posted Oh and then I spoke with my friend Suzanne who's in Kafr el Dawar now and she tells me to pack warm clothes for my trip next month. I can't even escape the cold in Egypt!
7ayat Member # 7043	posted just wanted to tell you guys that we had 30c in cairo today

Serendipity Member # 7211	posted Its snowing here, we have crystal snow now, which is really cool. but else than that, its freeeeezing cold here!
bay212 Member # 3424	posted It is sunny and warm here in Southern California...Shorts,T-shirts,sandals.75 F..Hello from sunny San Diego.............
Serendipity Member # 7211	posted i just found out that wearing high heels in Norway, is not such a good idea after all. Unless you dont mind getting some broken bones
Snoozin Member # 6244	posted LOL! What does that mean? Ice and you slipped and fell?
Serendipity Member # 7211	posted there are no normal roads now,, we have only ice! I should have worn my skating shoes!! amazingly enough i managed to go through the war zone without any harm. But when i say i managed, it means. that I crawled my away up to the safety area! This is the real battle field, Sara vs Ice!
