[On the Left Wing]

I blame all this snow that we're having on the global warming!

Watch The Day After Tomorrow!!!!!!

Quite a good excuse for not going home with the mentioned goodies Easy10.

No.
Those goodies mean that I at least live to tell the tale.

You're on the right track. It is to do with us being a maritime climate as opposed to a continental climate.

If it is really cold the wind is coming from a certain direction and means that it won't snow. I don't know the exact conditions for snow but I think it has to have got to freezing overnight and then a warm front comes in with rain and meets up with the freezing temperature of the cold front which turns it to snow

I'll shut up now cos I'm confusing myself

So that's where the word used to describe old ladies who can't control their peeing gets its meaning from. It's from land masses where it pissistently pours with rain no doubt?
