when you have frost on your windows in the morning.

 

[BabblingBrooke]

It's hard to tell this year, feels a bit like spring.

 

[chillywilly2]

[pointless]

[chillywilly2]

Thats what I said...

 

[Hard_Rom]

Snowy owls in Windsor is about as far south as they get. Somewhere up north it got cold enough for them to decide time to migrate. It's a coming!

 

[chillywilly2]

When I can drill a hole in a lake and the groomers come out...then its winter


freezing rain right now at least

 

[Aquagal]

I had a blizzard last night. Envy me.

 

[Minalick]

Got some snow today, icy roads and everything.
Only about 1 degree out now (Celsius of course).

You know winter is coming when the rape joke thread starters wander in from the Poetry Board.

 

[Artina Heartflash]

you know winter is coming

when your heater groans and breaks down

when the dog won't hang his head out the car window for fear of tongue freeze

when you walk around the neighborhood in your spotted hyena housecoat. (well...it's the warmest thing I got.)

 

[spacekowboy]

When the White Walkers show up.

 

[spacekowboy]

Also, 26 fucking degrees at wake up this morning. I live in southern California for Fuck sake. This is bullshit.

 

[Aquagal]

It better warm the fuck up, I'll be there next week.

Today is supposed to be coldest day of the week. Warming up and then rain Sunday/Monday. After that I'm not sure though.

I currently have 27 degrees, I shouldn't be flying somewhere colder.

When your dog won't go outside because she's afraid she will be mugged by squirrels stealing acorns from our oak trees. They're everywhere!

Oh it's warmer than that now, of course, but when I left for work it was 26°.

Blue moon over Kentucky keep on Shinin'.

 

[Hypoxia]

When I don't break through the ice.

When the WILDFIRE CONDITIONS gauge is at zero.

When the neighborhood black bear stops rifling garbage cans.

When we have two propane deliveries in one month.

When the wild turkeys wear earmuffs.

Your thread reminded me of a painting that I came across while searching for Christmass cards with a winter theme, on the net. For some reason it got to me:
