It is said that 14 provinces in South of China were attacked by snowstorm. And according to weather forecast, it is about to snow again since tomorrow.
Unfortunately, it happens during the period of Spring Festival's transport. Many people start back home. They wish to arrive hometown before Chinese New Year's Eve. There are many people are staying at train stations and long-distance bus stations expecting get a chance to get on train or bus. Almost every train and bus are overload.
And due to the bad weather, many trains, buses and flights are stopping now.
And I wonder how many people in China are in this trouble now. I hope everybody will spend this most important festival with their parents and relatives.

Oh, you are really lucky. And now it is sunny. I hope snow melts soon. I'm in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province. It is reported this is the heaviest snow in nearly 50 years.
Many of my colleagues and friends have to stay here during Spring Festival holiday. Fortunately, I'm local. But I hope everybody will celebrate this most festival with their family.

Yes, it is snowing heavily again here - Suzhou, Jiangsu. And which province are you in now? Are you in trouble of transportation?
