You should try a Moscow winter. Last year was a warm one - it didn't get properly cold until February - then it was regularly -20C and snowing every night.
Very pretty but a right bastard on your boots with all the chemicals they put down to keep the roads clear.Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.Comment

As a child in the '70's I remember building snow walls and having pitched snowball fights with my friends, we used to take sledges to a local hill every year for at least a week or two every year. Being a rural area the schools shut at least a couple of times a year as lots of the kids came from remote villages. The summers were a lot drier too.
In the last 20 or so years in Yorkshire there's been very little snow despite the fact that I live in the Pennines.
I put it down to normal fluctuations in the climate.Comment
