Pskov covered with a “wet blanket”: the first snow turns the streets into a skating rink

Winter in Pskov decided not to hesitate and on November 13 threw on the city its first “wet blanket”. Snowflakes are still melting on the palms, but the asphalt and lawns are gradually turning white. There is no sustained snow cover yet, but the cold breath of the season is already felt in the air.

However, it is too early for citizens to relax. The main danger of wet snow is its insidiousness. As soon as the thermometer columns crawl down, this melting veil will instantly turn roads and sidewalks into a real ice rink.

Drivers are urged to slow down and increase the distance, and pedestrians - look at their feet and choose shoes on a non-slip sole.
