whitey morning..cantik kan?
And the German newspaper this morning reported this:
The blizzard “Petra” hammered Germany with more snow overnight, causing three auto accident deaths, forcing airports to cancel flights and creating havoc for commuters on Friday morning.
The German Weather Service (DWD) said severe storm warnings remained in effect for the states of Saxony and Baden-Württemberg.But even in regions where the heavy snowfall was expected to ease, the situation for roads, rails and airports was chaotic, authorities said.
In North Rhine-Westphalia police placed a ban on any trucks over 7.5 tonnes overnight after dozens became mired down in snow and ice. In the Bergisches Land region some 50 trucks were reportedly parked in a row on the A4 motorway, while autobahns near Cologne, Dortmund and Münster were closed.
Traffic jams of up to 40 kilometres formed in the state, with rescue workers providing hot drinks and blankets for chilly drivers.
By morning the truck ban had been lifted in most areas, but treacherous ice near Münster would keep the vehicles of the road indefinitely, authorities said.
Traffic jams were also reported in the states of Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Berlin and Brandenburg following countless accidents.
In Dresden police counted more than 100 accidents within just a few hours.
Meanwhile three people were killed in auto accidents caused by ice. Two men were run over near Straubing while trying to help a friend tow his car. And a 60-year-old Passau man died when his car lost control on a patch of ice and hit a tree.
Heavy snow began falling in the morning in the neighbouring state of Baden-Württemberg , leaving up to 20 centimetres of snow on motorways, but there were few accidents because residents stayed in, police said.
There was so much snow in the state of Hesse that even street cleanup vehicles became stuck, while in Frankfurt so many people slept in their vehicles during traffic jams that police had to wake them once the roads began to clear.
Air traffic was also hindered by the storm, with Germany’s largest hub, the Frankfurt Airport, reporting more than 62 cancelled flights for Friday morning. On Thursday the airport had already had almost 250 cancellations, a spokesperson said.
Many flights at Berlin’s Tegel Airport were also cancelled.
But the storm pleased at least some children in parts of northern Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein, who got a second day off from school thanks to the snow.
