In the US i heard that alot of states are getting freezing rain this week. cars have a solid SHELL of ice, it takes ten forevers to scrape em off, the drive relly really crefully, as ice is well disguised in the pavement. Branches get covered in ice, get heavy and crak, falling on power lines, cars, houses. about every 15 mins i hear a siren somewhere (I live by a main road though, traffic is pretty constant) I just LOVE freezing rain  So did any of you get it as well?

I hate that USA always needs a different system. Fairenheit, feet, inches, miles... I hate it Why cant we all use : Celsius, cm, mm, m, km, miles (10km) I have checked the weather reports. It'll be snow to saturday and its getting alot colder it looks like, Lol, Its kind of a local cold where I live, by a lake, It makes it colder in a radius of 1km. A place 3km from here it was 3 C when I got home it was -2 C! http://www.storm.no/vgnett/Default.aspxlook on it  go to kautokeino I live close to oslo. Also you can see trondheim.

Why cant we all use : Celsius, cm, mm, m, km, miles (10km) I see no reason to hate the US just for that reason. If I remember right, back in the 18th century the French even tried making a metric system of time (don't know exact details on how it worked). It stuck around for about 12 years and then people decided it was too confusing and went back to the old system. I figure the first US settlers tried a different system of measurement and it stuck around long enough and enough people got used to it that it became customary. I'm not sure on how exactly the american measurement system started, really. Of course, for conversations, I have some rough conversion figures in my head so I can talk to those who use the metric system. But anyway, we got some more snow yesterday. Not much, maybe an inch. It's started to warm up, though.
