I am from a little town in the Adirondack Mountains of New York in the USA. We presently have 32 inches of snow on the ground and the temperature is 29 degrees. I can't wait for the warm weather and be able to enjoy the outdoors! I'm geeting cabin fever/ Anyone else feel the same?

My goodness, that is quite a lot of snow. I am living in Ireland and if we even had two inches of snow, the whole country would come to a standstill. It is raining here at the moment, but to-day was nice and mild with a little sunshine. We have just had a few frosty days this winter with a little flurry of snow in some parts of the country. I love the snow and I was hoping that we could have just a couple of days of it, but it wasn't to be.

I live in Davao City, Philippines. Generally, the weather here is great. We only have two seasons. The rainy or wet season and the dry season. The dry season are the summer months which used to be from March till May. May is the start of the rainy days and most months of the year get a good share of the rainshowers from time to time. The climatic conditions in our country have been adversely affected by this global warming thing, too. It so happens that the rains are not that well distributed throughout the year anymore. The El Nino and El Nina phenomena make our climate unmanageable at times. At times, when it pours real hard it could last for days or even weeks! The hot days are no longer confined to the defined to the summer months. And the heat is so intense, sometimes it feels like it burns and bite into our skins. The terms burning and biting heat is now commonplace to hear from the mouths of people. It gives one a splitting heacache to be exposed to this kind of heat for some time.

I live just north of Chicago and it's been snowing here for 3 days. I'm tired of the snow, I'm tired of the cold, I'm going crazy with the constant gray clouds hanging overhead. Ugh, I miss my Florida sunshine!
Maybe I'm just getting cabin fever, or maybe I'm homesick, who knows. My boyfriend actually laughed at me when I woke up this morning and complained that it was still snowing. He says, "You live in Chicago, what did you expect?" Heaven help me, but I am really sick of everything being white with snow.

I am from Sydney in Australia. The temperature of Sydney is fluctuating, when there is sunlight at the day time, the temperture may reach 30 degree or more, at the night time, the temperature may be down to 20 degree. As winter is approaching, it is going to be colder and colder at the night time..I do not like cold weather...!

I know where you live, and think it is beautiful. I live in the desert in Arizona. It is beautiful here all winter and spring and fall. But the summers are so awful, 125 *. I stay indoors as much as I can. We are reversed. Don't forget to rate best response and + ratings sugar.

I live in Bucharest, Romania, Eastern Europe.
We didn't get much snow this year, which is kind of odd since we were used to it. Right now temperature is about +15 degrees Celsius outside. The global warming is somehow responsible, with mixing of seasons and all...
However, since we have a trully beautiful country, both with sea and mountains, i was able to enjoy snow this winter, travelling to Valea Prahovei (a vast complex of resorts from Romania, mountain side).

I live just North of Minneapolis Minnesota USA. We had a terrible blizzard 2 weeks ago of nearly 2 feet of snow. It's been in the high 50's low 60's for the past 4 days. I have maybe 1 inch of snow left. The weather is going back to near normal temps of 35 daily. Spring warmth is on it's way. I can't wait. I want to start cleaning out my flower beds etc.
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!

Well, this was posted a month ago, so I hope your snow is gone. That must have been a real hassle.
I live in Oklahoma and we are in tornado weather right now. One touched down last night and killed two people. I love the spring and summer, but that is when tornadoes come calling. It's about 70 degrees and very humid currently.
