Heavy snowfall cripples Czech roads: Per The headlines this morning. This is an excerpt quote from the news:
"About 60cm of wet snow fell in the Frýdek Místek region within two days. A snow calamity at night and a strong wind have caused problems in road and railway traffic in the Czech Republic, with snow and falling trees stopping tens of trains mainly in mountainous areas in north Bohemia and east Moravia. In east Bohemia, hundreds of households have been left without electricity since the morning.
In the east Moravian area of Vsetin, at the Beskydy mountains foothills, roads are covered with a 30-cm layer of snow and blocked by fallen trees. Road managers have declared a state of calamity. Firefighters recommend that drivers should better not go to the mountains. Several roads have had to be closed for transport in Vsetin and other areas. The snow continues falling".
So there you have it! It rained most of the day here in Prague, and was about 37 F, same as in Rochester, but still felt cold to the bone...since it IS only the 16th of October!
