Snow and sleet contributed to a spate of road accidents in various parts of Finland on Tuesday morning.

The Road Administration issued a warning for poor driving conditions throughout the country.

The morning rush hour was most affected in southern and central Finland. During the late morning, the area between Uusimaa province and central Finland are receiving the highest accumulations. Reference: Snow Snarls Traffic Around the Country

I'm glad I skated at work today :-)

Thanks for the report Pasi, looks chilly! It'd be a good idea if you refer to Finland in the headline so that other people know what the report is about. Also please do use the Highlight tool to quote external sources. Many thanks.

I'll have to check my highlight tool, because it did not work. I start by installing it again.

Let us know if you need help with that. Thanks for amending the headline.

Actually only 1/3 part.  I had to bicycle down by the lake and then run 1 km from the harbour to the work. And vice versa in the afternoon.

I love skating.
