I was in Bulgaria last week and we were skiing through 2ft of fresh snow on a couple of the mornings..... great fun!

Good for the season!

And yet your country can clear the majority of the roads.
Over here if its more than 2cm of snow, the entire country shuts down.

They are more used to dealing with it.
