<p>And then I found <a href="http://www.scotsman.com/news-in-pictures/In-pictures-Your-photos-of.6643565.jp">these lovely photographs made available online at The Scotsman (Edinburgh)</a>, snapshots taken by Scots from around the country documenting the wild winter weather they&#8217;ve been having in Britain this week. Since it&#8217;s December 3rd here in Boston and we&#8217;ve yet to see a single flake of snow (though the forecasters promise some Monday), I&#8217;m going to indulge in a little winter weather photo porn. </p>
<p>Enjoy!</p>
