Frozen

It was –2°C on this Saturday morning, and the warmth from the Sun had not yet thawed the grass and leaves that were covered with frost.

Winters In Ithaca

Sunday, October 14th, 2007

If you are planning a trip to this region (Ithaca), and haven’t been warned about the winters here, then don’t worry — you will be.

In fact, winter in Ithaca is the one topic of discus­sion that is perfect for conver­sa­tion with a complete stranger: it is easy to begin, it is easy to end, and it is something everyone will agree on.

Getting to the point, winters here are cold. I haven’t experi­enced one yet, but it is the middle of October, and the temper­a­ture has started to drop. The minimum these days is around 4 degrees Celsius. For a person from Bombay, this is a good time to start preparing for that igloo you always wanted. (Of course, you can’t actually build it until the temper­a­ture falls below zero.)

I checked out the current temper­a­ture in Bombay — 27 degrees Celsius. *sigh*
