Weather guys almost got it right

[Squeak 17]

So 4 days ago, sitting in a guest house in Mong Kok, Hong Kong watching the news/weather i note that Beijing will be 10-20 degrees Celsius (50-68F)for the next week, Nice Autumn weather. So we board the train at 3pm for a 24 hour train ride to Beijing, nice train very compfy.
At about 2pm the next day i spy out the window and it's frigging snowing, I figure well maybe we're at altitude and Beijing will be fine, 'cause you don't get snow at 20C

One hour later we pull into Beijing West Rail station and it's covered in snow
The weather peeps lied to me, THE BASTARDS.
Today we have to go and find jackets and gloves because we sent all our warm bulky clothes home months ago.
Looking at either a 2 day train or flying into Tibet also (it WILL be cold there)

You honestly expect these guys to get the weather right?

Damn, that's an early snow. Just gotta wonder, what color the snow is in Bejing, considering the air was always murky brown when we visited. Are you going to see the usual sights and sites before you head off to Tibet? Keep having fun, you globe trotters.

We're spending about 4 days here in Beijing then looking at heading out. We're in China for 4 weeks.

DD the snow here is pretty but no where near as deep or pretty are Monroe
It is kinda speccy though on the chinese type buildings
yeah almost 12 months, only 6 weeks until we're home again

You're just not talking to the right weather person.

Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)
