It's starting to get quite cold here and it's propably going to start snowing soon. I should buy a nice winter coat since I don't have a one.

Still no real winter here.
It's close to freezing in the nights, but with 13, 14 degrees during the day...
Not cold enough.

It was foggy today. But now it's clear:

45°F / 7°C and cloudy, it`s going to be a great day to stay in and listen to some music and eat myself into a comatose state!

Y`all have a good `n!

Well that's good to know!

People overreact way too much here about the weather, though. Especially during the winter. For example, if there's only a couple of inches of snow on the ground, people ****ing freak out, like "OMG!!! IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD!!!!111!!1!!!!!!" About 13 or 14 years ago, there was a big snowstorm here, but not anymore than a plow could handle. Still, our mayor at the time actually called in the army to aid with snow clearing. People still make fun of that to this day.

The CBC did a funny parody on the reaction of people in Toronto when it snows, a few years ago:

BTW, 20 cm is only 8 inches!

I guess you have the same weather in the Netherlands as we have in the UK, its only started to get cold this week.

I was in Amsterdam about 10 years ago and it was windy nearly every day.

The first snow fell today. Just a few flakes, but since the ground was cold it stayed. Usually the first snow comes in October. Gotta love global warming.

Far from cold here. It's not even freezing at nights

It's not always windy in amsterdam, but it is pretty close to the sea so it's usually a lot more windy than where I live, about 125 miles from Amsterdam, in the Southeast of the Netherlands.
