World of two halves! Map shows most of Northern Hemisphere is covered in snow and ice


It is the extent to which the line dips down over the Northern Hemisphere that is so remarkable about the image.


The image was released by the National Oceanic And Atmospheric Association (NOAA) on the day half of North America was in the grip of a severe winter storm.

English: Creative Writing

I have been reading a book called "Tales of Death and Dementia" by Edgar Allan Poe - its a horror, comic style book.



This gave me an idea for my creative writing:-  turning an innocent snow-filled short story with a 'slight twist' of a horror.

How it does not scare you too much.  I think I scared myself LOL.

A Winter Wonderland

I am going to make this into a comic story as well, as we are studying comic strips tomorrow.
