Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / December 2006IT SNOWED!!!!!!!!
I can't believe it! It snowed. In Australia. On Christmas Day! Not near me, but in Victoria, nearer Flippy & Dave G. For some, it was truly a Christmas Miracle, A *white* Christmas. Meanwhile, Melbourne endured its coldest december day on record. But its snowed on Christmas Day in Australia!!!!!! http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200612/s1818163.htm Yowie > I can't believe it! > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Yowie Wait a minute, I thought it was Summer in Australia???? >> I can't believe it! >> [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > >Wait a minute, I thought it was Summer in Australia???? Yes, isn't it just a few days after the Summer Solstice in Australia; the longest day of the year there? It would correspond to June 21st in the Northern Hemisphere, if I'm correct. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Life without cats would be only marginally worth living." -TC, and the unmercifully, relentlessly, sweet calico kitty, Kenzie.

That's just too weird. Jill >I can't believe it! > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Yowie Wow! That's absolutely incredible! It should help the fire situation immensely. Joy That is so weird! Where I am at the moment (Armidale, NSW) it was cool enough to wear a jumper, and I was impressed with that.

We haven't even HAD any snow yet!! Bizarre. We have had some snow but it is all gone right now. The snowmobilers are rather upset and the motel owners are crying. There will be a storm of some kind tomorrow. ---MIKE--- >>In the White Mountains of New Hampshire >> (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580') >> I can't believe it! >> [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > OK the world is upside down!

We haven't even HAD any snow yet!! Bizarre. No snow here either, and we are in the snow belt. I can even leave my winter boots at home. Winnie No snow here just Tornado warnings and really nasty severe thunder storms. We have already had several on the ground. I have battened down the hatches already >> OK the world is upside down!

I should have told her to come home to Oz if she wanted snow!

It's a gray and fairly warm Christmas Day, near Washington, D.C. Enjoy your snow. You can have all of it, if you'd like. I don't want it.

[quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > Jane > - owned and operated by Princess Rita My allergies are going crazy like it is summer; Zak's allergies are bothering him too (he is itching) but I still am quite content to have winter wait. I have pretty much had it with shoveling snow, driving 100 miles back and forth to work in the snow, cold then slushy Long Island weather, etc etc! No snow this year would be too soon. Andy |
