Weather went crazy here.

That’s what I noticed on Sunday night through the window

Well, I told to myself, it have to be melted by Monday morning. It’s England and snow can’t stay there over night, that’s just impossible.

I was wrong.

Monday morning I woke up to this

Bus service was really poor, classes at schools and colleges were canceled, and people were making snowmans in the middle of roads.

Gosh, England went crazy, there was shows on TV how to dress in this weather and what to have in your car before you leave home.

Funny thing is, that snow is still here, and English are still in panic. muahaha.

As I grow up in Lithuania with real winters, -20′C temperatures and snow above knees, this phenomenon is strange and very funny. It makes me wonder how foreign people from countries like India, Malaysia or Zimbabwe feels now. Especially if it is their first snow.

My workmate from Kenya said, that his daughter refused to go out, because she is afraid to slip and broke her legs or arms. She will be 13 in March.
