(Mirror.co.uk)   Drivers urged to park their cars facing east to make defrosting easier. Subby will stick to using onions on his belt which apparently works?   (mirror.co.uk) divider line

It's England
It gets light at 5 am


This time of year? Sunrise is a little before 8 am (GMT) in London, and it sets a little before 4 pm.

My car is parked on the north side of my house so I would have to wait until never for the sun to burn off the frost. That being said, I'm usually at work for an hour before the sun comes up this time of year so it wouldn't matter to me.

It'll make it easier to see the progress you are making with the scraper.

DannyBrandt: lol.

"global warming"


Weather isn't climate dummy, but my guess is you don't know or care about the difference. Global warming (or rather - climate change) doesn't mean it's hotter or colder necessarily, but it does mean that the extremes are worse and happen more regularly. Climate change is upsetting the upper atmosphere and changing the dynamics of weather, additionally heat = energy, so as the globe warms, storms will have more overall energy to work with.

99.9% of all meteorologists and scientists trust the data on this phenomenon, maybe you should join the rest of the world and wake the fark up.

What's that in real temperature? For all I know, -25 C could be 45 degrees.


Real temp?

Um, approx 5% of the worlds population uses imperial. Imperial is defined by metric measurements. Fahrenheit is  just metric with more steps. Metric makes way more sense, 0 water freezes, 100 it boils, easy peasy.

But it's -15 f, -27 f with the windchill.

I didn't plan it, but I'm glad my house is on the sunny side of the street, the snow melts quickly in the sun. Unlike across the street, there was still snow for days in front of their house and they never clear the sidewalk.
