Were taking this very off topic. I think the issue here in UK is that we dont have decent preparation for either snow or heat. I worked in SE Asia for many years and love the heat. However those countries have AC everywhere. So as soon as you step foot in a building its really soothing. UK has no such facilities. Same with no, we panic as there are gritters who are often insufficient and thats it.
But that's it though mate, the panic, that's what does my head in.
It's all the build up to the mega snow storm that never comes, that heatwave that will finally do us all in.....
It's the hysteria that drives me crazy, 'it's coming, it's coming, wait for it.... ' and then nothing fuckin happens time after time. And when the snow or heat comes it lasts for three days and it's gone, so why the mass panic?
Do you remember the snow storm in Jan of 2017? Went on for weeks in the news how bad it was going to be and it barely covered the grass.
Seems to me that it's another thing we've got from the US....fear. We seem to be shit scared all the time, I used to laugh at them stocking up on food, water, batteries (and anything that'd make them even fatter). Sad to say but I don't think that the Uk is that far behind, unfortunately.
