Romania is under snow, lot of snow...

Romania is under snow, since Tuesday. When most of us got down from our beds and looked on the window what we could say was: "Woow! That's a lot of snow!". But the snow wasn't the problem, the problem was the wind, so ADP's cars and their plows were useless. After the cars that supposed to clean the streets, you could see how the wind was pushing the snow back in the streets. So yesterday the snow melted(some of it) and in the night froze. On the streets, if you need to go somewhere with your car, it's like hell, like a frozen hell. And let's admit it, most of people could go to work with the public transportation, and most of them are still on holiday until 7 of January. But no most of them decide to go with their car, to park in the street blocking one lane, so the ambulance has to stay 30 minutes to pass an intersection, how are they supposed to save lives in this way. Because there were cars parked in the street, that's the main problem here in Romania, parking lots, the streets were not cleaned from side to side, so guess what, garbage trucks are unable to pick the garbage from front of the stores or from garbage bins. And it's a lovely view, in the big white sea of snow you can see from place to place, little piles of garbage. Luckily that it froze so it won't smell. Oh and most of the stores are empty, cause people feared that the end of days is coming with this snow.
