[bendless]

So the snow came early this year, it looks like.

First time seeing this white thing we call snow? Don't panic. It's cold, but it's not dangerous.

If you're inside, just dress up warmly and make sure all your windows and doors are closed.

If you're outside, let people know so we can come help you back inside and into warmth. Well, those who aren't stuck inside that is as... I imagine a lot of us are.

Winter is nothing to be afraid of. You just need to adjust. Right clothes will make everything better. Trust me, I was raised in the middle of snow.

Thanks for the reminder, Sokka. Having come from a country where it snows a lot in the north (especially in Scotland), I know that there is nothing wrong about the snow. I actually enjoy seeing snow back in my world.

Weirdly enough, I was actually stuck inside the cafe I work at for one night when the snowstorm came in. And to be honest, I was more surprised by the power outage than the weather.

[She's new, and aside from video being easier (and faster, trust me) than her spelling out everything she wants to say (especially given how she rambles....), it's still fascinating to her. This "network" is like a whole new world unto itself! So hello, Sokka. Have an easily excitable brunette.]

Honestly, I think the snow is pretty exciting!

[If it sounds like there's a "but", that's because there IS.]

... Buuuuut... our room doesn't have a fireplace. Do you think they'd get mad at us if we made our own? Or-- oh! Is there magic that can do something like that?

While you're certainly correct in saying that winter preparedness and remaining calm is the best approach, I'd be careful saying it's not entirely dangerous.

Hypothermia and getting lost in blizzards are common enough occurrences to those unused to such weather. Although, in this case, I imagine it's likely more people are getting lost in snow tunnels.

[Which is still not a good predicament to have.]
