Ack, I envy you 27°C, it's close to 40°C here and the temeratures are still supposed to climb. The only AC we have in the house is some frozen plastic water bottles I plunked in front of the fans, else we'd already melt or something.
Haha maybe I shouldn't complain then although 27 is hot for here in my defence. Were a funny country, the slightest fall of snow or temp close to 30 degrees C and we grind to a Holt. I like the plastic bottle thing might try that :)
LOL! I hear you about a place grinding to a halt because of weather. Here, it's never because of heat, we're used to that. But two winters ago, snow fell in our region for the first time in (I think) 22 years. Just a few centimeters and you'd have thought everyone forgot how to drive a car. Crazy!
Do snowploughs and gritting, salting wagons come round in your area? Do people have tyre chains? I ask because when there's a 4" snowfall in my country (Britain), everything stops and people die. Some of my online friends, in places where a 12" snowfall would hardly count as real winter, see how ridiculous the British snow-failure is. I'm proud of just about everything in my country but I'm not proud of how we fail at snow. I think it's mainly about preparation with the resources that needs.
No, nobody has tyre chains here, you never see them (I think last time I saw those was when I lived in the US, in Upper Michigan). Snowplows and salting wagons? I'm actually not even sure! It snowed here a couple of years ago and we'd have needed them, but I never saw any and the snow just lay on the street, packed down, until it melted. I guess we hadn't needed them for over two decades, so the city figured we never would.
LOL! We fail at snow just as much, you're not alone. I don't know if it's like that in other regions where it regularly snows, but here in my region, we can't do snow. At all. :D
