Of course, as a lifelong prairie girl, I find it utterly amazing the inability that some have when it comes to dealing with snow, but best wishes to the Brits! One good thing, hey Vancouver, you aren't looking so bad when it comes to coping with the winter! Did you all check out Heathrow?? Wow...and I thought sitting in a plane for a few hours waiting to de-ice was irritating (which it was)! Anyways, what are some of the worst storms that you experienced!

My cousin's had never seen anything like it. Everything pretty much came to a stand still.... now imagine how damp it is there and how much colder it felt.
