weather

On a different forum, I just read a post by someone saying a business contact in Finland told him they'd discovered a new comedy TV channel - weather reports from the UK.

As little as half an inch is sometimes enough to cause road problems here, due to some councils arguably being negligent about treating roads, and some are now down to less than a day's stock of salt, but there are places with 6 or 8 inches (15 to 20 cm) even in parts of the south, probably a bit normal for many of you


Meanwhile, here is a photo I just saw on a forum for O2 Ireland customers, in a thread about coverage being temporarily down in a certain area. It rather reminds me of standing near the foot of a TV mast in Germany years ago, with warning signs saying Vorsicht: herabfallendes Eis. So much for the idea that microwaves and phone signals heat things too much
