My friend called me last night from Vilhelmina in northern Sweden.

He was telling me that he has cancelled his business trip to Saudi, not because Vilhelmina airport is closed, he says he can not remember it ever being closed despite having winter snow fall measured in meters, but the fact that Stockholm has problems!

Just shows that if you expect snow above your head every year then chances are you will be prepared, if not the airport has difficulty.

I see EMA has delays of around two hours at the moment, so compared to the LHR delays, and I was there on Saturday and the snow looked no worse that what I see out of my window now, we are doing quite well!
