Default Snow!

OMFGWTFBBQ!!!!!!!

It just started to sleet (semi-snow) up here in the Adelaide Hills - Mt Barker!!

Thats the second time in my 19 years I've ever seen that happen and the first time for about 10 years!

Wow, just thought I'd share that with y'all.

ps, wrong section, move it to The Bar if you desire, sorry guys.

Well I don't know where the hell you guys are talking about, but it sounds quite remarkable (2nd time in 19 years)

I can feel the snow in the air up here... we normally get snow at least once a winter. A few years ago we didn't get any for about 3 winters, but now it's back! WOOHOO! I think it's gonna snow this week (well I'm hoping). My son has already begged me to buy him a cheapie skateboard so that he can take the trucks off it and use it as a snowboard

At the moment it is freezing, icy and I LOVE IT. That's why I live here! :
