China shivers with memories of '08
PROVINCES most affected in last year's snow disaster are on high alert again as an ice storm snarled up traffic, threatening the coming Spring Festival travel peak, which starts in three days.
The central China's Hunan Province issued its first sleet warning of the winter on Tuesday as a storm hit 34 cities and counties, dumping several centimeters of snow. Cars were barely moving in downtown Changsha, the capital city.
Hunan Provincial Meteorological Observatory urged transportation, power and communications sectors to be on alert through the storm. It also asked citizens to stay indoors as long as possible to prevent accidents.
Sleet, which started on Monday, has already disrupted many people's travel plans.
"The heavy snow last year brought a lot of inconveniences to my trip home," said Ma Liang, a Wuhan University student.
"I really hope the snow will stop soon 掳?because it's only three days until my trip home," said the boy, who has been away from his hometown for six months.
