Tyrant Posted January 14, 2013 Report Posted January 14, 2013 Tell me about it! I checked outside about 7.30 and all seemed fine, but when I left about 8.30 snow everywhere.. The Lang Stracht was alright, just the bit between the roundabout at the end and the Kingswells roundabout that was bad. It didn't help that there was a Lorry stuck at the entrance to the Business Park either. Looking back though, it wasn't really horrific at all, it was just slow. Could you not sign on at a job centre in the city centre like? Quote

Tyrant Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 I remember it snowing in the middle of May a few years back. Quote

Kowalski Posted November 24, 2017 Report Posted November 24, 2017 No snow but it’s fucking Baltic. Hope you’ve had your flu jab! Quote
manc_don Posted December 11, 2017 Report Posted December 11, 2017 This is proper snow and proper dedication to your team! Buffalo Bills fans last night. Quote
LA-Don Posted December 11, 2017 Report Posted December 11, 2017 Hate to say it but I miss snow. 85 degrees here, dodging the fires! Apocalyptic here!! Quote
Elgindon Posted December 11, 2017 Report Posted December 11, 2017 We set off to do some Munros on Saturday with Aberdeen under an inch or 2 of snow,thinking we'll be a lucky if we get a couple done today.Got there(Ben Lawers) and were surprised how little snow was on the hill.Forecast had been lots of snow leading up til Saturday.Got all 4 Eastern Lawers hills done IMG_3267 by [/url], on Flickr Saying that,there were a few dodgy bits IMG_3298 by , on Flickr Quote
Madbadteacher Posted December 11, 2017 Report Posted December 11, 2017 We hid sna here on Friday nicht, but just a wee dusting. Quote
BigAl Posted December 11, 2017 Report Posted December 11, 2017 This is proper snow and proper dedication to your team! Buffalo Bills fans last night. Minds me of a game against St Johnstone around New Year 1983 or '84 We were 3-0 up at half time when heavy snow started and game never restarted. Fun and games getting back to Coopers that day Quote
KrakowDon Posted December 12, 2017 Report Posted December 12, 2017 Aye, 3rd January 84. That was the big power cut that affected the whole city. Mind getting the bus home, and it seemed the lights were going out one by one behind us as as we went up Union Street. Quote
donsdaft Posted December 12, 2017 Report Posted December 12, 2017 I think that was about the worst weather I remember in Aberdeen. I had a flat in the Spital at the time so it wasn't too far to get home. I remember worrying about my Father driving to Dyce though and as a young lad I didn't do a lot of worrying about my folks. Low temperatures that winter as well. Quote
Elgindon Posted December 13, 2017 Report Posted December 13, 2017 Mind that game well.The boy on the pitch with his crutches Wasna laughing when I got back to my mobile home to find the power was out.... Quote
manc_don Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 So is it that bad over there? This amuses me, someone building an igloo in George Square Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 Aye, pretty brutal, relatively speaking (i.e. not really that brutal) He should have given himself more room for a carry out and drinking partner in there. Poor planning. 8/10 for structure, 3/10 for planning. Quote
Jute Posted March 1, 2018 Report Posted March 1, 2018 Unbelievably my office is closed today for a wee bit snow. No buses and no trains. About 6 inches of snow at most. We are becoming a nation of pussies. Hopefully the pubs open. Quote
rocket_scientist Posted March 1, 2018 Report Posted March 1, 2018 We are becoming a nation of pussies. As Jerry Sadowitz said, the opening line of his gig in the Music hall, Britain's gone gay. Snowmageddon is fucking ridiculous. Folk stocking up in the supermarkets and fighting over the last items on a shelf the worst manifestation, fuelled by a sensationalist media who ignore the real issues. Quote

I appreciate that the snow is is worse in the central belt and that the odd road in the north east is treacherous but the businesses closing early are a fucking embarrassment. Even pubs were closing early last night ffs. There's maybe an inch or two of snow in Aberdeen. Quote
