Your weather has been showed on TV here and in some places, it looks like you got a lot of snow! Glad you're safe, though! I guess some people will take the opportunity to have a cosy time at home, and I bet the children are happy they get the day off.

When I travelled to the US in 2010, I stepped out in snow reaching my knees - at 6AM, I was worried the taxi wouldn't be able to make it, but it did. The flight was an hour delayed, since they had to defrost it once more. I certainly could have used that extra hour in bed!
