second storm and the conditions were even slipperier than the first storm - notice all the folks spun out or in the median

As much as I hate snow, I can't wait to drive in it again.

Well, usually it is not this cold when it snows. Hence a lot of big accidents on main roads (if you click the link on my youtube video description, you will see).

We are on the shore of baltic sea, it means a bit warmer but more snow. 200 km north from here it is -30 celsius at the moment.

These are not every day temperatures at this time of year, but not unusual... sort of low-range of averages.

If not this winter, next winter I will record video of snow drifting somewhere open area. Snow drifting is always fun. Speeds are lower and tyres will not get bad.
