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

~*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.

There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious—makes you so sick at heart—that you can't take part. You can't even passively take part. And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop. And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all

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. :D Dublin is covered by cloud too so you can't even see that I'm waving. :P

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 :arrow: http://www.wtvynews4.com/home/headlines/80994737.html
If you search, you can find videos of the iguanas falling out of the trees.

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.
