Well refer to the "snowfall is only a normal occurrence in Russia/U.S./China/Canada" comment someone made on the Fall Thread.
:
I know the comment youre talking about and tbh to a point I agree. I would not say snow is THAT rare, but if I had to guess Id assume that 2/3 of the worlds population live in areas where snow is not common
Using population as a basis when it comes to weather/climate/geography is rather pointless and misleading, considering that just because people don't inhabit a certain place doesn't the climate there doesn't exist.
Judging how "rare" a weather phenomenon is shouldn't be a "how many people experience it" rather a "how much land mass experiences this weather". Just because people don't live there doesn't it doesn't happen there.
It's kind of like saying California is the state that most represents the U.S. climate simply because it's the most populated state, even though anyone with any weather/climate knowledge would know that's not true.
Anyways, snow happens in FAR more countries than just those four. The statement on it's own is rather stupid. As if snow doesn't happen in Scandinavia, Eastern Europe north of Greece, most of the "Stans", Japan and a plethora of other countries.
It's also dangerous, having 12 year old kids walking around at 5am by themselves
Lol. 1st graders walk alone to school here.
Inhumane is how Asian cultures work their kids to death.
e: I'm not calling it spam, because it's actual information, but I looked at the Autumn thread 1.5 days ago, and there were exactly 100 new posts since. Sorry, I won't browse trough all of them, and that ruins the seasonal threads for me.
