We've have light snow around Christmas just now, but the big storm was contained by the mid-Nineties. The snow looks beautiful, but it virtually shuts the City down until they bring the snow-plows out. Great if you work in snow-removel: adjectives kinds of extra take-home pay: Holiday, weekend, double-time. Enough to guarantee a great Christmas for their families. But for the regular society: sit back and soak up the tree and fireplace, if you have one. You won't catch far until the buses and train routes are cleared!
