As expected, it was snowing this morning (1 to 3cm on the ground). I love the gentle cushionning provided by the fresh snow. London is great for that: pavements are not gritted, even on the bridges, so the snow stays longer. For the first time in years I wore a long-sleeves T-shirt on a short distance run. They're usually reserved for negative temperature or ultras. This therefore was worth a post...
Also, as forecasted by Fred, the transportation seems to be in a real mess this morning. 3/5 airports closed, lots of delays and cancelations on the trains. Many schools are closed and radio stations advise to drive only if really necessary...
Let's face it guys, London's latitude is about 51°30' (ie. closer to the North Pole than the Equator), and we're the 8th February (ie. in the middle of the winter), snow falls are to be expected. Signal failures and broken down trains should follow their usual rate...
Ultra discovery.
