I live in Florida, so I haven't but I'm wondering how many people have already had snow this winter?

We've had a very light dusting down where I am. We've had some good snow falls in the mountains though.

I live in the Northern part of Idaho in Coeur d'Alene. Down here we can get snow as early as Halloween. Usually it can start snowing down here at a regular basis by December, but not always.

Well, it doesn't snow much down here. Every once and a while we get some, then when we do it never last very long...

Would it be unusual for you to get snow?

Are you kidding. New England has never had a winter without snow. At least I don't think so. Thanks for asking, anyway.

Do you live in a state that gets a lot of cold weather and snow?

Hi again, a few hours after I made that post, I was chatting on the radio and heard from others that it had been snowing, in Ballarat to the west and on the Dandenong ranges to the east. Quite unusual for this time of year. Brrrrrr. I live near a place called Werribee, in between Melbourne and Geelong in Victoria.

I'm new to this site and didn't realize there were so many people from all over the world on here. Sounds like quite a storm you had.

Well I live in Australia, near Sydney, and we have only a couple of weeks till summer, but would you believe that an area called the Blue Mountains, 1 hr south of sydney, got snow yesterday!!!!!! The weather is so weird here, last week was so hot that we had the air conditioner on, and this week I have the heater on!

Ozone Hole Map - This picture of the hole in the ozone layer was taken September 10, 2000.
Oh, my goodness, that is odd! Unfortunately, I think odd weather will become the norm as we deplete the ozone layer.

I'd be happy to have snow but sadly to say we only get snow once every three years here. Maybe we will get lucky this year.

Where is it that you live? We haven't had snow since 1976, so I think every three years is terrific!

Yes, I live in Iceland so maybe it's not surprising that we have snow. There isn't much snow in Reykjavik, the capital city where I live but some parts of Iceland are covered in snow. It's been very cold here lately and we have had some really bad storms but most of them were rain storms. Even though everyone thinks Iceland is always very cold, I have never experienced anything as cold as Massachusetts and Ohio in the winter. The awerage temerature in New York is lower than Reykjavik but our winters are longer and it never gets really warm in the summe. The first time I went to Florida it snowed in Orlando, that was in either January or February 1989. I never expected snow in Florida but I guess anything can happen lol.

Thanks for your wonderful, educational answer. I am surprised to learn that there is anyplace in Iceland where there isn't a lot of snow, and that you found Massachusetts and Ohio to be so cold. I'm from Florida and can tell you it was very unusual to see snow here! It snowed in Miami in 1976 but that was quite newsworthy. It probably hasn't snowed in Orlando since you saw it.

Neat! Quite a few of my Internet friends live in Michigan. I'll have to check with them and see if they all got snow, too.

I live in south central South Dakota and yes we have had snow 3 times already. It was so cold the last few days, I had to scrape the ice off my car windows to go to work. The windshield wipers were frozen to the window-it was not nice! Right now there is snow on the ground. Today got pretty warm but still didn't melt all the snow. I hate it! Actually, I don't hate the snow it is the COLD that I hate. I must be getting old.

I would love to see snow, but I don't think I'd like to live in it.

Hi I'm in the North of Scotland (UK) and we have had snow three times this year so far. It has been very strange to have snow for a couple of days then warm sunshine and the leaves are still on the trees although they are turning brown now. I guess that's global warming for you.
