Well Hello,

It's a Monday, and yes it's rant time
I can't hold this one back

I had a quick glance in the Mirror Paper yesterday,
page two headline, Big Freeze Set To Hit The Uk

They claimed the snowstorm that effected New York last weekend was
heading our way

That the south-east could even see a slight covering in places

And the temperatures... wait for it
Will be as low as 4 degrees C in places

That is Plus 4 degrees, not minus

I laughed out loud when i read the article

Let's see, New York had two foot of snow over the weekend.
I checked out various New York webcams during the event and since
Roads have been cleared and are open.
People in New York will be going to work today
Children will be going to school today

As they will be in other countries that have severe winters, parts of
Finland for example

So isn't it curious that London and the South-East area of England in
general can't seem to cope with a light snow cover

I know it's become a very rare event, but really
New York can cope with a huge snowstorm, they pick themselves up and
get on with it, so London should really be able to cope with light snow
That's the end of my rant for today
