... Places like Quebec City and Thunder Bay, Ont., "are going to see, for the first time in history, a green Christmas." So will most of British Columbia, most of Central Canada and the Atlantic region.

1. Our grass is still growing. Messed up.

My fingers should be falling off from the cold right now. Instead I saw someone in a tee shirt outside walking this morning.

3. It's been freezing and foggy here in the UK

We get a White Christmas so rarely you can bet on it at the bookies

4. I think we might get something on Saturday,

but it's "wait and see". I've been walking to work in shorts and a T-shirt. Normal here is between two and three feet of snow and about -10C.

5. Time to put the snowblower away and tune up the lawn mower.........

after the October snow disaster, it has been NOTHING but green pastures.

6. We're winning the war on snow!

Too bad it's not Tony Snow who's been missing....
