"Quarter Of" and "Quarter After" are more southern terms, though used
other places as well. "Quarter To" and "Quarter Past" are more northern
terms (Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Chicago). Zulu is also used in aviation.


We also use "quarter after" (as well as "quarter past") here
in the Great White North -- however, I've never heard
"quarter of" before.


You got snow in Tronna?
