Possible record-breaking-snowman melting thread

[Gangster Octopus]

Harvey.

"You're gonna need a bigger carrot."

[ad hoc]

After a week of temperatures over 20 it's looking a bit the worse for wear but still hanging bravely in there

[Lang Spoon]

Melt ya prick. No way is he gonna be down by 3rd week of April.

[MsD]

[Sits]

Please can we add an extra challenge to predict the winner? I reckon it's Delicate Moth.

[Jah Womble]

Nah, it's me. Got it in the bag.

That leaderboard on the previous page needs some serious updating, however.

[3 Colours Red]

I'm off to borrow Toby's hairdryer.

[WOM]

You just sit quietly and I reckon either you or ursus or moth has this thing in the bag. I'm well outside the window.

[Benjm]

I'm off to borrow Toby's hairdryer.

You have to question his quality of life at this stage. You could be like Snowman Dignitas, just place the hairdryer in what remains of his snowy hand and let him choose.

That said, Toby's hairdryer is a sit-under, salon grade model, isn't it?

[WOM]

In some shade of retro '60s pastel pink or seafoam green.

Big lol.

Uh uh. I know what you're thinking. "Did he use six shots of serum or only five?" Well to tell you the truth in all this excitement I kinda lost track myself. But being this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful hairdryer in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've gotta ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?

[Benjm]

Clint quite possibly did use the most powerful hairdryer in the world on his bouffant early '70s 'do.

[Various Artist]

All right Jah, here we are. G-Man is the latest out of the running, with Southport Zeb leading a pack all set to be unlucky in the next few days too unless something drastic happens. As things stand right now, if and when Zeb's date goes past in two days' time more than half of the original 41 entrants to the sweepstake will have been eliminated.

[ad hoc]

My daughter has taken her duty seriously and has taken a shot of the snowman, after a week of +20 temperatures. We appear to be entering the end game. I get home next Tuesday night. I wonder whether any snow will still be there

[Lang Spoon]

Melt on Wednesday ya bas.

[San Bernardhinault]

I thought I had a chance, but it looks like I overshot.

[ad hoc]

Yeah unless there's a cold spell on the way I reckon it'll be Sits or Blameless

[Wouter D]

I like my chances.

[3 Colours Red]

I'm off doing whatever the exact opposite of borrowing Toby's hairdryer is.

[hobbes]

Not borrowing Toby's hairdryer, presumably.

[Kevin S]

I'm not sure opposites are always that simple.

[Capybara]

Yeah unless there's a cold spell on the way I reckon it'll be Sits or Blameless

There's a lot of guesses for next week/weekend. At this rate you may need to be up at midnight to see when the last flake disappears.

[Sam]

It'll be quite surprising if the last flake disappears in the middle of the night though, to be fair. What with that tending to be the colder part of the day.

I do hope ad hoc is either going to take the day off work or give one of his daughters permission to stay home from school in order to keep an eye on it when the sun's out, though.
