If it snows heavily with record breaking cold temperatures it will be just a freak weather event.
However, if we have an unusually mild winter, it will be further evidence of the rising average global temperature caused mostly by 4x4 drivers living in the south.

If it snows in Glasgow, I don't see it. Very rarely snows where I live. Gulf stream and all that jazz.....Comment

Ski wear tends to be quite expensive and often not that warm in and of itself because a) skiing & boarding are high intensity activities so you keep warm from the activity and b) it's often designed to be layered so on especially cold days you add a fleece under your skiing jacket.
For just keeping warm around town I have a down filled jacket, hat, gloves and scarf and some proper boots and warm walking/hiking socks do the trick. Thermal underwear is good when it's really cold, I do find if I'm out for an hour or more in the extreme cold jeans alone don't cut it.
Layering is good, especially in the UK where most of the time it isn't going to be below freezing all day every day I find my down coat can be overkill except for a week or two.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment
