Saw this on Mastodon and had a laugh. Not sure if it’s real, but it’s funny.

    Yeah that’s even tougher, we get down to just under 9 hours average in December, but we don’t have the warm water from the Gulf Stream, so it’s similarly cold here.

    We’ve had snow an hours drive north already. And a ski area a bit more north is forecasting 10-12” (20-30cm) of snow this week.

      Wish we had snow here yet. Snow is nice. Cold is nice. It’s the dreary just above freezing wet and soggy mess of November I hate most.

      I even got nice new Nokian winter tires (studded of course) for my car this year and they’re already installed, so I’m basically fully prepped for snow and ice season.

        Aw man I hate when I install snow tires too soon. My mechanical sympathy is triggered.

        I’m worried that El Niño will put my area on a rain/snow line all winter.
