When you can no longer walk home in the snow is when it is bad, I remember the winter of 62-63 which was the coldest for 300 years, this winter is a spring morning in comparison.

If you're not used to winter, it's probably bad, but if you're used to winter in northern Wisconsin, South Dakota and Minnesota, it's light. There's been a few times where houses and vehicles were buried, but we still went to school.
Check out the Blizzard of 1978 that hit the Northeast. In my old hometown of NYC, I left the subway around 1.00 AM and could walk along Hillside Avenue without worrying about traffic. My late parents were watching TV and the news was reporting a record snowfall for Boston. It made the next day's newspapers and the TV networks. No trolley, no bus and electric bus via double overhead wires, no taxis, but a short section of the Red Line subway in a tunnel and the L train service was still running over the streets.

Although pollution levels have fallen dramatically across the country since the 1970s, those living in a polluted area in 2001 still had a 14% higher risk of death than those in the least polluted places - the same as in 1971.
We used to get decent winters in the UK. In the 70's and 80's snow was not uncommon. I particularly remember the winter of 80 into 81. Off school for over a week. Glorious!
As a weather buff I can say the human memory is very selective in remembering past weather. In the 1970s for example every winter from 1971-76 was mild or very mild.
We always forget the mild winters for the simple reason mild weather does not cause any problems. The exception is flooding as mild winters tend to be wet or very wet.
@@welshboy8277 Hey, not much of a weather buff with respect to your good self. There is a noticeable difference now year on year. Just ask the insurance companies and the people getting flooded out by them mild winters - the cost is exponentially higher.
Most will run off as it melts and not reach the aquifers, lakes or reservoirs - the last two refill from the skies, and snow melts to a lot less water.
Doesn't take much snow to stop London. We don't start worrying until we get over 3 feet. Lake Erie snow belt is a different world. Buffalo NY area got 6 ft. in one storm this year.
I was just going to say that this is a dusting for us in Buffalo. I think the highest total from the past storm was 77 inches, that was a lot of snow in a short time
This video makes it sound all gloomy and threatening... all the while I was out in the middle of it absolutely loving every bit of it (although I did check on our elderly neighbours). I even a managed a snow ball fight with complete strangers... that was fun!

@@lucagordon5770 It's obvious in England, they can't handle a couple inches of snow, while in the midwest & northern states in the US, we get 5-8 inches & continue along . I go out shopping, to my doctor appointment etc.
Be prepared. Have a shovel, cardboard, to dig out. Here in Michigan USA, some people put a heavy load in the trunk to help with traction. We also have "all weather tires" or winter tires for better traction. The front drive cars do better than rear drive. Keep a warm hat, gloves, scarf, in the car. Keep gas in the car, and have your phone charged up. Best wishes!
Canada here. This is just normal. We cope with winter tires on cars, plowing and salting the roads and sidewalks. Personal dress code is wool socks, snow boots, long johns and warm pants (I wear ski pants over jeans), layer upper body with T shirt, flannel shirt and maybe a fleece under your parka, toque, warm gloves or mitts, and a scarf if it's windy. No big deal. Just take your time and enjoy the beautiful snow.
I know right? Looks like fun! But I'm from a northern state not too far away from you and you just deal with it, like I would imagine the Norwegians in the north do. Get some hikkapaledia tires, throw a scarf around your neck and grab your mittens... Weeeee....
Canadian here too. Karma getting a winter like this after relying too heavily on Russia and then going along with the US and poking the bear. You must be just burning through those expensive limited fuel reserves with these conditions. So thankful Canada is incapable of exporting our natural gas to you, which would drive up our natural gas prices for your stupidity.
Unfortunately the UK weather changes so rapidly that we aren't geared up for hot or cold prolonged spells . Local councils cannot keep snow ploughs parked up 50 /51 weeks of the year, we just don't have that kind of financial resources.
In February 2020 it hit -55 C somewhere here in Alberta! For our friends in the US that is -67 F!!! I think a Londoner would just straight up die if they had winters like we do. Not that anyone goes outside when it is -55 C here, but -30 C is not that uncommon and sometimes you just have to go out and suffer through it. I won't unless it is a real emergency, but I'm out in -20 C each and every winter. You can't avoid it. 🤷♂😯👀👌
@@MsPinkwolf It can hit over 100 F here in the summer, too. Houses in Canada have to meet certain government standards or they are not approved for habitation. Things are just plumb crazy here every year and there is no room for error. 🤷♂

Is the Thames freezing over yet ? If not it's not as cold as it was during the Little Ice Age (~1300 to ~1860) when the Thames froze solid every winter...
it was not every winter but The last great freeze of the higher Thames was in 1962-63. Frost fairs were a rare event even in the coldest parts of the Little Ice Age. Some of the recorded frost fairs were in 695, 1608, 1683-84, 1716, 1739-40, 1789, and 1814.
@@stevekenilworth The Frost Fairs you mention are the only ones with sufficient documentation to be considered to definately happened however there is (less definitive) evidence for more than just those events. Also, it's more than possible that the Thames froze sufficiently to allow foot and animal crossings but not sufficiently to support a full Fair, complete with buildings and (relatively) large numbers of people. It's doubtful the lower Thames froze at all...or, if so then at least far less frequently simply because tidal rivers are notoriously hard to freeze. We have several tidal rivers where I live and while we gets lots of snow, long periods of well beliw 0° weather and a our lakes and fresh water rivers and streams freeze regularly, I've never seen a tidal river freeze sufficiently to allow other than small animal foot traffic.
I remember there was a winter just like that in 1947 or 48... the snow was really deep and walking to school was difficult. Didn't snow that often in London, but it did happen now and again....

The mountains are very beautiful when I was younger spend weekends in Rye Colorado with my cousins he use to throw cook outs there my uncle had a cabin there. In the summer it can get toasty here. In the mountain it’s cooler lots of deer and bears , but they have signs posted. In higher mountain they have mountain goats . Our state is not humid kinda dry.

Thus far I have been able to raise the average daily temperature in Colorado by 4 degrees. I will continue increasing my carbon footprint until I can grow palm trees on my property. I am glad I live in a free country.
Totally over-egged! And to those in North America I relate a personal tale of waking up in my hotel in Dallas to about an inch of snow in February many years ago. There was a slight incline out of the parking lot. I was the only driver to make it out, the rest were just revving the guts out of their engines, spinning tyres madly and sliding into other cars, walls, etc.
@@asensibleyoungman2978 We don't have winter tyres as we don't normally have snow like this, especially in the south of England around London. The last time was probably about 10 years ago. And the last time I can remember snow being 2/3 feet deep was when I was a teenager so about 30 years ago.

I remember back in the 70's and 80's in NY we used to get blizzards all the time, the kids loved it and of course the adults hated it. NY hasn't had a blizzard in years now, same goes for the summer time, we haven't had heatwaves since the 90's. I remember having blackouts a lot back in the 90's, and it's been pretty good so far, we still get bad weather, but it's not like back in the 70's,80's,and 90's. NY hasn't had a bad hurricane in years, we get the rain and wind that comes up the cost, but we haven't had a major hurricane in a long time. I hate when people act like it's the end of the world when they get 12inches of snow, or a couple of inches of rain, I've seen much worse when I was younger, and as for the rest of the US, some states get hit pretty bad, but they don't act like it's the end of the world, only the media does that. I remember Hurricane Sandy, a lot of people think NY got hit by the Hurricane, and we didn't, I remember that night and early morning like it was yesterday, we had no rain, well maybe a drizzle, no wind, but that night I watched as water from the ocean just started to slowly come up the beach, over the boardwalk, then it came in the street, and it kept coming, but it was really slow, some people were outside when the water hit, but like I said there was no rain, no wind, and the ocean water just came on land very slowly, and it didn't stop, at some pint in the middle of the night the water must have pushed on land faster because when we woke up everything was a disaster, there was nothing but sand everywhere. People lost their cars, and they got a lot of water damage in their homes, the worst part was losing the electric, it was cold and nobody had heat or lights for over a month, but we never got hit with the Hurricane, and I find that very odd.
Can't home the homeless. That would involve building more and more houses. That would upset the people, most do not want any new houses to be built especially in their area. It might bring in the wrong type of people into their area. Their government doesn't want to increase housing supply because it will lower the property prices. No, the homeless will just have to sit this one out I guess. I'm alright Jack. The solution is simple. Build thousands and thousands of new houses not apartments. The Chinese have the ability build houses efficiently and in less than half the time it takes a British builder. Get them to build, build, build, build... bring down house prices. If necessary build special units for the homeless where they are offered a roof over their heads. Otherwise it's lip service...ooh how awful it must be for the homeless...

@@alexwilsonpottery3733 Yes, that is understandable if you are not used to snow. Even in Canada at the start of winter where I live with the first snow fall ppl forget how to drive in the snow and ice.
The UK is not used to so much snow! So please ease up on the rude comments. They don't have the same equipment as many places have for snow removal, salt on the roads, etc. Extreme weather is something that the country is not used to.
As someone who has to deal with snow for months out of the year it's kind of amusing to see traffic shut down for what would be considered here a light snow.
Tbf it never used to bother us, in the 90's we were regularly wading through knee deep snow on bikes to school. Now they shut the schools when there's ice/snowflakes incase someone gets injured and sues the school
The problem is that much more than light snow is rare in much of the UK, so there's less equipement to deal with it. There was a case of a council buying a snow plough, and scrapping it 10 years later without it ever needing to be used.

LOL That's the real difference. Same here in Canada. At least my mid-November we're fully ready for "Snowmageddon". My 4WD SUV is wearing it's snow tires, the radiator has anti-freeze good for -40 C, as is the windshield washer reservoir and the gas tank is always topped up with "winter gas", the winter wipers are installed and the battery has been tested and passed. In the back are two large fleece blankets, a second winter coat, spare gloves & mittens, bottled water, power bar snacks, candles, extendable snow brush, ice scraper, camp shovel and a basic tool box. Every homeowner owns a few snow shovels, bags of rock salt handy, ice scrapers and possibly a roof snow rake. We don't install furnaces, water heaters or any type of plumbing in attics or exterior wall of the home, water supply services are buried at least 4 ft. below grade and roof are rated for the snow load and I have 50 inches of fiberglass insulation in the attic. A wood burning stove or fireplace is a bonus for many. Winter isn't cheap in Canada, but somehow we make it through to another spring by May.

Here Here! I remember 70s winters and fun on the farm!
Except my parents recounted how interest rates rose to 15%, inflation rocketed like now, there were blackouts, strikes, bin collections cut to 3 days a week....you recall the 70s through rose tinted glasses and appear to have erased the problems of decades ago which are the same as now. My parents had to go abroad to afford to live and pay the mortgage on their home back then and it was the only solution to pay the mortgage.
Although pollution levels have fallen dramatically across the country since the 1970s, those living in a polluted area in 2001 still had a 14% higher risk of death than those in the least polluted places - the same as in 1971.

It's the rarity value of it in the tropical south of the country.
In truth, it didn't make the headlines in England. I'm not sure why there's a US-made video about it

We used to get decent winters in the UK. In the 70's and 80's snow was not uncommon. I particularly remember the winter of 80 into 81. Off school for over a week. Glorious!
Indeed we did. There was a clear definition between summer and winter back then. Decent snow for a week or so and long hot summers.
@@argonaut6386 Yeah, there sure was. I started noticing change back in the early 90's. People thought we were off our heads.
As a weather buff I can say the human memory is very selective in remembering past weather. In the 1970s for example every winter from 1971-76 was mild or very mild.
We always forget the mild winters for the simple reason mild weather does not cause any problems. The exception is flooding as mild winters tend to be wet or very wet.
@@welshboy8277 Hey, not much of a weather buff with respect to your good self. There is a noticeable difference now year on year. Just ask the insurance companies and the people getting flooded out by them mild winters - the cost is exponentially higher.
I know the UK had a rough summer but that snow should be a welcome sight to bring the reservoir and lake levels up for next year.
We had a lovely hot summer
Most will run off as it melts and not reach the aquifers, lakes or reservoirs - the last two refill from the skies, and snow melts to a lot less water.
If one has enough heat to survive the cold...
It was a beautiful summer.

Be prepared. Have a shovel, cardboard, to dig out. Here in Michigan USA, some people put a heavy load in the trunk to
help with traction. We also have "all weather tires" or winter tires for better traction. The front drive cars do better than
rear drive. Keep a warm hat, gloves, scarf, in the car. Keep gas in the car, and have your phone charged up.
Best wishes!
Canada here. This is just normal. We cope with winter tires on cars, plowing and salting the roads and sidewalks. Personal dress code is wool socks, snow boots, long johns and warm pants (I wear ski pants over jeans), layer upper body with T shirt, flannel shirt and maybe a fleece under your parka, toque, warm gloves or mitts, and a scarf if it's windy. No big deal. Just take your time and enjoy the beautiful snow.
I know right? Looks like fun! But I'm from a northern state not too far away from you and you just deal with it, like I would imagine the Norwegians in the north do. Get some hikkapaledia tires, throw a scarf around your neck and grab your mittens... Weeeee....
Shut up!
Canadian here too. Karma getting a winter like this after relying too heavily on Russia and then going along with the US and poking the bear. You must be just burning through those expensive limited fuel reserves with these conditions. So thankful Canada is incapable of exporting our natural gas to you, which would drive up our natural gas prices for your stupidity.
Unfortunately the UK weather changes so rapidly that we aren't geared up for hot or cold prolonged spells . Local councils cannot keep snow ploughs parked up 50 /51 weeks of the year, we just don't have that kind of financial resources.
Thats just a dusting.

There was snow on Sun 11/12/22 and then rain here in the east of England, still freezing
I leave in Alberta Canada , that is a pretty light snow compare to what get here in the winter months .
In February 2020 it hit -55 C somewhere here in Alberta! For our friends in the US that is -67 F!!! I think a Londoner would just straight up die if they had winters like we do. Not that anyone goes outside when it is -55 C here, but -30 C is not that uncommon and sometimes you just have to go out and suffer through it. I won't unless it is a real emergency, but I'm out in -20 C each and every winter. You can't avoid it. 🤷♂😯👀👌

Is the Thames freezing over yet ? If not it's not as cold as it was during the Little Ice Age (~1300 to ~1860) when the Thames froze solid every winter...
it was not every winter but The last great freeze of the higher Thames was in 1962-63. Frost fairs were a rare event even in the coldest parts of the Little Ice Age. Some of the recorded frost fairs were in 695, 1608, 1683-84, 1716, 1739-40, 1789, and 1814.
@@stevekenilworth The Frost Fairs you mention are the only ones with sufficient documentation to be considered to definately happened however there is (less definitive) evidence for more than just those events. Also, it's more than possible that the Thames froze sufficiently to allow foot and animal crossings but not sufficiently to support a full Fair, complete with buildings and (relatively) large numbers of people. It's doubtful the lower Thames froze at all...or, if so then at least far less frequently simply because tidal rivers are notoriously hard to freeze. We have several tidal rivers where I live and while we gets lots of snow, long periods of well beliw 0° weather and a our lakes and fresh water rivers and streams freeze regularly, I've never seen a tidal river freeze sufficiently to allow other than small animal foot traffic.
I remember there was a winter just like that in 1947 or 48... the snow was really deep and walking to school was difficult. Didn't snow that often in London, but it did happen now and again....

I remember back in the 70's and 80's in NY we used to get blizzards all the time, the kids loved it and of course the adults hated it. NY hasn't had a blizzard in years now, same goes for the summer time, we haven't had heatwaves since the 90's. I remember having blackouts a lot back in the 90's, and it's been pretty good so far, we still get bad weather, but it's not like back in the 70's,80's,and 90's. NY hasn't had a bad hurricane in years, we get the rain and wind that comes up the cost, but we haven't had a major hurricane in a long time. I hate when people act like it's the end of the world when they get 12inches of snow, or a couple of inches of rain, I've seen much worse when I was younger, and as for the rest of the US, some states get hit pretty bad, but they don't act like it's the end of the world, only the media does that. I remember Hurricane Sandy, a lot of people think NY got hit by the Hurricane, and we didn't, I remember that night and early morning like it was yesterday, we had no rain, well maybe a drizzle, no wind, but that night I watched as water from the ocean just started to slowly come up the beach, over the boardwalk, then it came in the street, and it kept coming, but it was really slow, some people were outside when the water hit, but like I said there was no rain, no wind, and the ocean water just came on land very slowly, and it didn't stop, at some pint in the middle of the night the water must have pushed on land faster because when we woke up everything was a disaster, there was nothing but sand everywhere. People lost their cars, and they got a lot of water damage in their homes, the worst part was losing the electric, it was cold and nobody had heat or lights for over a month, but we never got hit with the Hurricane, and I find that very odd.

So do i must be unbearable!!!
Can't home the homeless. That would involve building more and more houses. That would upset the people, most do not want any new houses to be built especially in their area. It might bring in the wrong type of people into their area. Their government doesn't want to increase housing supply because it will lower the property prices. No, the homeless will just have to sit this one out I guess. I'm alright Jack.
The solution is simple. Build thousands and thousands of new houses not apartments. The Chinese have the ability build houses efficiently and in less than half the time it takes a British builder. Get them to build, build, build, build... bring down house prices. If necessary build special units for the homeless where they are offered a roof over their heads.

The UK is not used to so much snow! So please ease up on the rude comments. They don't have the same equipment as many places have for snow removal, salt on the roads, etc. Extreme weather is something that the country is not used to.
As someone who has to deal with snow for months out of the year it's kind of amusing to see traffic shut down for what would be considered here a light snow.
Tbf it never used to bother us, in the 90's we were regularly wading through knee deep snow on bikes to school. Now they shut the schools when there's ice/snowflakes incase someone gets injured and sues the school
The problem is that much more than light snow is rare in much of the UK, so there's less equipement to deal with it. There was a case of a council buying a snow plough, and scrapping it 10 years later without it ever needing to be used.
Legend has it the guy who hit those cars is still sliding sideways down that road

Not sure what your point is. We know places nearer the poles get colder weather.
A major part of the problem is, that Britains don`t use (or have) tires suitable to drive on snow.

My 4WD SUV is wearing it's snow tires, the radiator has anti-freeze good for -40 C, as is the windshield washer reservoir and the gas tank is always topped up with "winter gas", the winter wipers are installed and the battery has been tested and passed. In the back are two large fleece blankets, a second winter coat, spare gloves & mittens, bottled water, power bar snacks, candles, extendable snow brush, ice scraper, camp shovel and a basic tool box. Every homeowner owns a few snow shovels, bags of rock salt handy, ice scrapers and possibly a roof snow rake. We don't install furnaces, water heaters or any type of plumbing in attics or exterior wall of the home, water supply services are buried at least 4 ft. below grade and roof are rated for the snow load and I have 50 inches of fiberglass insulation in the attic.

@@Jon-hx7pe Yeah, true, good point. They don't have air conditioners in summer, and their architecture isn't built for the hot weather, and now they don't have snow plows. They're going to have to adapt, we all have to.
@@Jon-hx7pe the roads are usually gritted which stops ice forming on the road but looks like they weren’t expecting this.
That looks more like New England where I am from than England!
It’s freezing here 🥶🥶 we’re not used to it anymore as winters have become more mild (wet and windy) it hasn’t been this cold for a least 4 years! But hope we get snow got a little bit , but nothing significant… ❄️⛄️⛄️🌨️😊 #blizzardspls
Winters have become more mild ?
Where have you been, south Africa.
@@greggthunderburg7294 yes they’ve been mild in west wales for a few years. Where have you been?
Last year it didn’t get below zero during the day once and only a couple of times the year before.
@@MsPinkwolf live in mid wales it did dip below freezing multiple times not as often as two or 3 years ago but it definitely did especially at 5.45 in the morning.
David Viner's bad prediction continues to entertain us all.
2019 was very cold with multiple snow storms, and one of the coldest February's in decades across Britain.
Looking at the traffic, it is quite clear these vehicles are not using winter tyres and or snow chains.
“Within a generation, snow will become a thing of the past..... snow will become a rare and exciting event... children just aren’t going to know what snow is, except through books” David Viner March 2000 (global warming “scientist” from university of East Anglia)
LOL !!!😆
WOW ... England and Scotland.... getting Montreal Canada weather.......Snowstorm just like here... Welcome to the club......!!!!
What happened to Global Warming? Weather was supposed to be warm and snow a thing of the past?
This is the effects of global warming. It changes weather patterns. How often does Southern England get slammed like this?
Everything is extreme now
@@dkpqzm Global Warming causes cold and snow. While Global Cooling causes warmth and no snow. Makes a lot of sense....
@@am56879 Off course. Global Warming causes everything to be extreme while Global Cooling causes everything to be mild. No one can deny the sound science in this. Just like how all the Pacific Islands are now all underwater ten years ago.
Can't argue with a idiot
I like India, I love india, climate is normally every year, nofreezing, snow storm India, I lot enjoy. ....
This is true climate change. The sun is going into a reduced activity phase similar to the Maunder Minimum. During the Maunder Minimum the Thames River froze solid every year.
Great to see your comments there is hope in a brainwashed society
Snow is the least of UK's problems.
That's old footage..I was in a 18t lorry in London right by St Paul's yesterday.. I drove around with ease..
It's about Channel with bot reading. Bots can't recognise fhe difference between light snow and a blizzard. And of course it's not the real footage of the weather right now (I'm next to London and no snow been here established at all only dusting for 30 minutes max but gone now).
From the various commentators, it is not how heavy or light it is,it is the authorities who do sod-all about it.
Growing up in Erie PA, this is nothing. Maybe out of the ordinary but just another day in Erie.
England...what about Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales? Apparently the coldest day was in Aberdeenshire.
Remember when “they” were confidently predicting the end of winter sports in Europe ??
I'm CAnadian and used to snow like that, but I get the feeling in the UK they don't have the snow ploughs that we have and its possible they're not used to changing the car tires too. I got so fed up with that I leave my snows on all year round.
Give our snow and cold weather back,and you can have your Rain back,+10
N/E Scotland here, plenty snow on the hills -17 inland last night…No snow on the coast but -7 this morning, Brrrrrrr
It snowed like this when I was little in the 80's. still went to school n such.
Why are they leaving street lights on if they have an energy crisis ?
The Weather is simply Crazy - it is just 12 days till Christmas and we are in a Tornado Watch, there does not seem to be rhyme or reason .
Weather control is what it is
