Snow is disrupting everything in Europe right now. We get why people are frustrated – it’s nearly spring, the weather should be nicer – but it seems like Brits have let the snow meddle into their lives a bit too much.
People from countries that know real winter, like Canada, Switzerland, Russia, and Norway, started mocking the Brits for taking their winter too seriously. Below are some of the most hilarious reactions we’ve gathered so far. Enjoy!
Britain the only country that copes better in a war than they do in a snow storm

How did the Brits manage to colonise Canada if they're panic buying at -4C? #Snowmageddon #snow

Terrorist attack: Brits go on as normal, death will not stop us
One inch of snow: all Brits hide, school is cancelled, busses are death traps, end of the world

English friends & coworkers: "we got so much snow, everything is shut down. Even the trains! It's insanity".
Me and rest of Canada: "pfft just a dusting".
Love my Brits, but you guys are funny. 🙂#londonsnowstorm #England

Brits: "Our weather is notoriously terrible, British Summertime is an oxymoron, haw haw".
Also Brits: "What is this? SNOW? In the WINTER? Tis the end times! The Fimbulwinter is upon us! For the love of God, Marjorie, stockpile teabags!"

Oh you silly little Brits. A bit of snow and -4 and the whole island shuts down. Canada and all of the Nordic countries enjoy watching you complain. Canadian football final was played in a blizzard. pic.twitter.com/j9PZPBeeqA

Some advice from a Scotsman to help fellow Brits stay safe in the snow:
1. Walk slowly
2. Use your arms for balance
3. Don't leave the EU— Ben (@codename_B) March 1, 2018
