frost, hail and numb toes

We had snow last week and in Kristiansand when it snows, you can bet your life it's gonna rain in a few hours. We're far south in Norway and the winter is not as tough as in the rest of the kingdom.
This particular day started off with a romantic snowfall in the dark morning when we were waiting for the bus, and continued with something of a snowstorm that turned into rain and hail for the rest of the day... My collegue from Singapore was not happy, to say the least.
From this day onwards, I have been wearing extra layers of clothing, and still found that my toes just won't get warm.
So most days I have felt about tree toes getting numb and completely white. And it's still just autumn!!!
Oh, I miss the winters of Guangzhou, China, but who knew the fall could be so beautiful!
I think I've never really noticed before...
I'm writing this sunday morning, and can't help feeling it's not right to stay inside. It's about -1 degree C, clear blue sky and frost on the ground. The only downpart is that the road is slippery and my shoes are not made for frost. Maybe I should buy a pair of those metal rails that old people put under their shoes during winter.
