I have checked my unofficial snow records for this winter season.
Including today's snow we've gotten approximately 120cm of snow since
mid-November 2007 (by the end of the day the total may increase to
125cm). The average for the Kingston/Odessa region is 165 to 170cm
annually. A lot of snow melted yesterday with grass showing, but
today's snowsqualls covered up any visible grass again. Thaws cause
the snow depth to fluctuate greatly from deep to shallow to deep...

Fair enough. I understand your comment toward foreigners on this site.
I really should inquire more about UK weather than I do.

Along that line, I am curious about the occurrence fohn winds in
Scotland. Is such a weather phenomenon possible in the mountains up
there?

P.S. Do I notice a hint of snow envy in your text :-)
