Snow Drops, UK Stops

In my time in the UK, there have now been a few occasions where the weather has seen fit to unceremoniously dump a metric shedload of snow around various parts of the country. Despite hearing about ridiculously high temperatures in Australia during the summer, it does make it seem like the threat of global warming might be a little over-hyped, after all, it's supposed to be global right?

Anyway, perhaps the more interesting thing about these events is that the UK pretty much ground to a halt as a result of these snowfalls. While I understand that snow can put a dent in the ability to people to get to places, in some cases it seemed a little excessive. Perhaps the closure of London's underground rail system is one of these cases.

Underground.

Not exposed to the sky.

The sky where the snow is falling.

Go figure.

Though given there wasn't much snow in York, I understand that they might have had a little more to complain about in London.

Maybe.
