Russian air

You can say it's raining hard, but it feels wrong to say it's snowing hard, because even though it's bucketing down outside, it's completely silent apart from the wind howling a bit.

Back in Feb this year when we had the really heavy snow, it was said to be the worst in 20-odd years, and thus statistically unlikely to be repeated any time soon. Less than a year later, and before Christmas nogal, and we're in for more of the same.

Which is to say, I think there's a non-zero chance that the trains will be out of action tomorrow.

Update: well, woke up this morning and it wasn't much snow as in February, but a decent layer in our neck of the woods nonetheless. Getting into work wasn't too bad, but by this evening the rail services had descended into chaos.
