Driving through the snow
So much for the 10 inches of snow we were promised. We haven’t even had a few millimetres settle here in Manchester. It has attempted to snow though, via a bit of sleeting, and a fairly standard amount of rain. However, it was snowing as I was driving home from work this evening. Watching the headlamp-lit snowflakes flying towards my windscreen against the dark of the night sky it occured to me that this was probably the closest visual effect to accelerating towards lightspeed in the Starship Enterprise I was ever likely to experience in real life. It’s definitely a bit spacey.
