Snowing in Paris tonight

March 12, 2013 by Hugh Nelson 21 Comments

It’s snowing here tonight, and it’s beautiful. I took some photos of Notre Dame de Paris and of the streets near our apartment. There isn’t very much snow, but it also appears that Paris has no snow removal equipment. Police lights are flashing everywhere. It’s slick out there. On the other hand, the metro is running on time.

      Hi Carrie,
      Now that the café below us is open there is a huge difference in the warmth in our apartment!

      And there was nearly total quiet last night as it was too icy for most drivers to venture out. The snow melts today though!

      Yes, where is the spring? Actually the snow is melting today and I see daffodils around the base of trees on the grounds of Notre Dame!
