Storm

Two days of snow but I do need to go to a firm far out on a industrial zone, and can’t get there by public transport. So I drive through the storm and enjoy it. I’m always surprised that Montréal doesn’t grind to a halt when there is a lot of snow. The snow removal is pretty efficient. Even though the snowing hasn’t completely stopped, you see snow plows, bulldozers and salt and sand dispersing trucks everywhere.

I later read that there was a snow storm in the Netherlands as well and that in some parts they got two feet of snow. Which is exceptional. It’s also very cold at night, even colder than here. That’s even more exceptional. And there was total chaos on the roads and on the airports.

I’m glad I’m here.
