Too lazy to check how much that would be in Celsius, but I take it you don't enjoy the snow?
Very strange weather we had yesterday. Just after lunch the sun came out (for about 15 minutes as it turned out) so I decided to take a walk. By the time I was ready to leave after some light housecleaning, the snow had started again but it was only a few flakes, so I went to the park anyway. By the time I reached the top of the hill the park is on, the snow had turned into a kind of light hail, and then there was thunder. Then the snow started falling in earnest. I started back home and managed not to slide down the concrete path (actually I walked on the grass to avoid humiliation), and when I took refuge in my neighborhood café, I was covered in snow. Not usual weather in this area. Now it's just ordinary, cold and depressing February weather, with some light snow (not ordinary) added for fun.
In other news, I am still (and again) jobless and running out of comfort reading. I just finished the 9th volume of Robin Hobbs' trilogy of trilogies, and trying to find a way to buy her new book at a reasonable price despite those darn geographic restrictions. If that fails I may have to re-read another one of my fantasy/romance books for the eleventieth time.
