Hi.
As we say it is raining cats and dog.
I wonder if we have similar idioms for snow, Does it sound weird to your ears if you hear someone say it is snowing cats and dogs.
Thank you

Yes, it sounds weird. Emotion: big smile

A combination of lots of wind and snow is a blizzard, but that's not really an idiom. I don't know any idioms for snow that are the equivalent of that idiom for rain.

Yes you could say it is Snowing cats and dogs. It would make sence to say that.

Maybe you don't realize it, but you are answering a question that was asked almost 8 years ago.

Why not answer questions that are more recent? That way there's a better chance that the person who asked the question is still participating on our forum and can benefit from your answer.

Students: Are you brave enough to let our tutors analyse your pronunciation?

Answering questions after 8 years, could help others that have the same question 8 years later. So, it's not bad at all to answer old questions.
