The Republic of Heaven

10% of Canberra's yearly rainfall came down between the 25th and the 27th (it wasn't much), but now it is sunny again.

Ha Bloody Ha

~*iguana*~ snow. I fell three times and got pelted with snowballs by a huge group of kids half my age.

I walked way out of my way today to avoid a suspicious-looking bunch of kids on my estate. The schools shouldn't let them roam around free when it snows

They should employ the Child Catcher to lock 'em all up. Getting the back of your head pelted with snowballs hurts.

/me builds a snowball gun for bethan, that looks like this:

Snowed a bit today in the afternoon so they cancelled all the buses. ¬.¬

An avalanche in the making...

This is not my weather, this is your weather, but it's so pretty I had to share.



Poor Darragh & Olivia, you guys look seriously left out...

We didn't get it as bad but Dublin is white and extremely cold and I believe Northern Ireland (Where Olivia is if she is not in Uni) got covered as well as you can see in that epic pic so don't feel bad. Dublin is covered by cloud too so you can't even see that I'm waving.

There is a freeze in the state of Florida; folks who usually wear sandals and shorts are donning cold weather gear. Here's an article http://www.wtvynews4.com/home/headlines/80994737.html
If you search, you can find videos of the iguanas falling out of the trees.

Ice!

Goddamn ash.

some of you in chat may have heard me talk about the epic storm the other day. here's the best video i've seen of it yet. it's like something out of a movie. except no movie could make it look that epic. NATURE RULES

for those who have never lived a full year up north, a 12 hour timelapse video taken from a webcam in finland, split into winter/summer side-by-side. i think it's really cool!

(if you're easily bored, skip to 16:00, 01.30, 08.00, but it's more effective if you sit through it and experience the totality of a day, keeping the lengths of light/dark in mind)
(lord, i prefer winter)

just watched that storm again, alex. it is truly fantastic. it's like it's eating the world!
also, time lapse vids are super-cool. so you do get an hour or two of light during the winter! your streets look like winnipeg weather transplanted into suburban montreal, on the left.

Been raining. And storming.

S0 much.

The rain's going to drive me insane. ;-;
