the coldest was ~-28C and the deepest ~60cm in Espoo. The highest piles were up to 3m.
>Coldest
>~-28C
HAHAH! I suffered even more cold.
Had a battle camp in Jämsä, Halli (army stuff). 5 days long.. coldest what we/I heard was about -35C in daylight and near -39C at night.. snow didnt had much but fuck I hated that coldness.. expecially at night when I had to guard the area I was guarding...

anyway.. after the army I realized how I much I can hate snow..
-clothes gets all wet
-its fucking cold
-your foot gets cold if you stand too long in snow
-its smelthing takes forever

only one plus snow gets is that its soft.. and you can make snowballs..

Army wise snow is awesome. You can ski to places, you can dig into it to stay warm, nothing worse than having -40 and no snow.
Then again, you have to take special care to not be spotted because of the tracks. It's a bitch. especially if you happen to be recon like I do. In the summer you mostly have to take care of some dogs and perhaps a person or two who can track(lol at modern kids skills in moving in the woods, I was even able to track my teammates who were trying to be discreet). In the winter anyone becomes a tracker, it's quite annoying.

Because we can!

I think when it rains and the temp is just above freezing is worse.

By far.

Anyway. I love snow when it is not on the roads and when it only lasts a few months.
Its nice to have a snowy winter. Lots of things to do that you can't do in the summer/places that dont get snow.

I hate snow with a passion. It just snowed by me not too long ago. It's APRIL! Damn.
We had some bad snow storms/ blizzards this last winter. So I dislike it even more now
then I did last year. Haha.

Plus, if you gotta drive somewhere here, forget about it.
It's not gonna go so well.

never said it was bad xD It was actualy really enjoyable, I didn't even use winter jackets during the winter :P it was perfect temperature.
I wished there would have been even more snow :P but well, if here on Espoo would be 2 meters of snow, think how much there is on the lapland xD

Double posting bastard.

I love snow. I hate the other idiots who don't know how to drive when it's on the ground.

I hate windy cold weather. Regular cold with ample clothing is fine.

How old have we become to say that snow is not a good thing! Most Finnish people love to go riding the Sled, making snowmen/snowcastles and to swim in a "Avanto" (Hole in ice) Those who don't want to admit it, fine. Continue your boring lives.  :P

SNOW IS AWESOME!

Snow is innocent in all of this. Most people associate snow with cold. So they hate it. It's unfair.

It would be like associating smart people with Steven Hawking and believing that all smart people have disabilities.

Seriously, without the cold factor, probably like 99% of the haters would love snow.

I love deep winter. Just as I love the blooming spring and the summer winds. What I hate are these damn transitional periods when the temperature can't decide whether it wants to stay positive or negative.

I love snow and winter.  It's my favourite season.  I love big jumpers and being wrapped in blankets.  I love coats, scarves and gloves.  I love hot chocolate.

I love everything about it except for one thing.  THE PEOPLE.

The people ruin winter for me especially snow.  All they day is whine about it and then you get the idiots who stand and throw snowballs at random passerbys and sometimes but stones in them.

But apart from them winter is my favourite season. :)

Bombs away! Yes, I love snow.  Throwing snowballs at random people (no stones in my snowballs though) and jumping from second floor of my dads house.  ;D

Absolutely true. Love snow, hate the cold that comes with it.

Indeed, I love snow and frozen lakes, I just don't like the cold... but you cant really have one without the other. Though, I prefer the cold to extreme heat.
I guess I dont like winter roads either when the plows are slacking, but the rest of winter is just fine with me.

Does it count as a yes if I really really really like the snow when it is about to go? Because that is my favorite time of the year.. :)
