Anyone that hasn't experienced snow/snowing don't know what they're missing out on.Sure, its cold but its a sight you wont forget.Kids love it too.It didnt snow here on the coast but it did a few kms inland.Bring it on.

Hey it sounds cold enough to be Duckadang. At least it didn't snow there. Weird today though. It was 12 deg at 8 am and 6 deg by lunch time and its still 6 deg now. That just doesn't happen here!!! I wish it would snow here though. You guys that haven't seen it don't know what you're missing. Playing in the snow is in the top 5 things my family likes to do. Except my wife. She's from Christchurch

Yes Paul, Snow is fun. You tend to forget the cold when it's snowing.

Yesterday when we had the heavy falls the school let the kids out in it to play for about 2 hours!!

Ha! According to the teachers themselves they had more fun in the snow than the kids did!! While the kids where just standing in it letting it fall on them or kicking it about, the teachers had a snowball fight.

Which ones are the kids?? Good on them.

Hey, they got out of teaching for a couple of hours and the principal is on holidays in Perth LOL!
