Incredible pictures of European deep freeze
Re: Incredible pictures of European deep freeze
Wow. All of those ice crystals dripping from everything must be because of the humidity do you think? Because it gets DAMN cold here, and while things get covered in ice, and sometimes we have icicles coming off of stuff - but I've never seen anything quite like that.
We have the mildest winter on record this year in Saskatchewan. It's been crazy.
I think it's due to not being a rapid change in temperature. We get a lot of ice, but rarely a lot of snow because there's moisture present as the temperature dips to freezing and it goes back and forth between above/below freezing.
I took am unimpressed.
I think some of those photos are beautiful! (if you ignore the fact that the ice could be dangerously slippery and damaging.)
When I lived in Rome in '04 they got a light dusting of snow and the whole city flipped out and dumped mountains of salt all over ever surface. The snow melted by the next day and then there were mounds and mounds of salt everywhere. It was a wee bit of an overreaction. I'm sure they are really flipping out now with the recent snow there. It's probably more than most of them have seen in their lifetimes.
