So, apparently the snow I mentioned in my previous post continued. The 'Deep Freeze' that followed is being called the worst snow storm in something like 70 years. I did a quick google search to see how much snow had actually fallen and got a respectable ~8 inches. Not bad, I can understand the absolute terror when a city as big as London only has about 3 snow plows. Then I looked outside. What was the accumulation? About 2 inches, just enough to cover the grass and not enough to cause slush on the roads.
I did find an interesting blog post by a Tube drive for the London Underground:
Even more fun? Watch this little bit of Top Gear (a british TV) where they are making fun of the state people were in yesterday.
Jeremy Clarkson: "The way they were carrying on you would think it was time to build an ark!"
NERD MOMENT: I really like their choice of music when they talk about the snow
Cheers
