We had something like that in Sweden, according to the news. I mean, it was all over the television, 400 people were trapped on a train on xmas eve and stuff. I know one guy who was delayed 6 hours on a 12 hour trip from the south. The bus drivers refused to drive and the train company urged people to stay at home. Especially on the 26th, because it's the single busiest travel day of the year. According to the news, the country couldn't have been more deeply petrified if the ice age hyperblizzard from Day After Tomorrow had struck, and they had pictures of snowstorms violent enough to make you believe it.
So of course I went on a 150 km bus trip on the 26th. It was indeed pretty busy, they had to get an extra bus to take all the passengers. But there was not a single minute of delay.
In conclusion, you got to laugh at those soft wee Southerners.
