  I grew up in Florida. I didn’t see proper snow until I moved to Minnesota as an adult, it kinda blew my mind a bit, lol. I had no idea what was meant when people said the snow glistens - pictures can’t really capture the effect.

    Long ago I was in a Union and every year as a apprentice we had to go to Kansas City to a school. One year there was a guy from Hawaii. First week there came a light snow. A inch, maybe two. We go down for breakfast at the hotel they had us in. We look outside and this huge Samoan is out there barefoot in nothing but cargo shorts dancing around. That guy was out in it every second it was snowing for the rest of the stay. I guess most of us had got that out of our system as kids.

    I’ve started watching a YouTube channel of a guy trying to handbuild a homestead in Alaska. I forget where he said he came from, but like you, it was somewhere without snow.

    On a recent video, he recorded himself seeing what I think he said was the third snowfall he’d ever seen and the first with accumulation. It was nice to watch his clearly genuine joy and surprise.

      Joy? I’ve gone to the snow as a kid and have chosen not to go as an adult. I consider myself a bit of a masochist but not that much

    I am from FL and just moved to MN last year and it was similar for me. Snow doesn’t feel or behave like I thought it would based on TV/movies.

    Don’t you get to see snow glistening if you watch a movie like The Thing?

      Depends on the lighting and if they used real snow.

      Oh yeah absolutely, i didnt mean it that way. I meant that its sad that its produced with netflix because its a shit company. But its actually in cooperation with the BBC and it will air there first. So yeah it will be “available” for free in HD on day one.
