[Rockhounds] Minerals in motion

Hello people,

 

I had quite some fun today while looking at the news.

A thin layer of the mineral called ice has been deposited over Belgium last
night. In the form of snow.

About 3 cm of it. The result was quite hilarious. Our country is 330 Km,
measured at its longest dimension. We had a grand total of 450 km of traffic
pile-up.

Trains and busses were more than 1 hour late.

It makes me think what would happen if we had the same snowfall in Belgium
as you guys had in some parts of the US.

I guess you'd have to come and shovel us out ;-)))

 

This night the predictions are: -14 C. If we don't make it, carry on without
us. It was good knowing you (LOL)

 

Cheers

Axel
