Solar Eclipse 04-01-2011 Moscow





Russia also lies in the penumbra's path. Residents of St. Petersburg and Moscow would witness a large magnitude partial eclipse at around noon local time (09:00 GMT) - magnitude 0.846 and 0.812 (81%) respectively - if the skies are clear.

Evening on Red Square





We had a nice, if cold evening on Red Square with Omma & Abbi

Ice Storm






Christmas Day and the day after it rained, but as the temperture was -5c it froze on everything it touched. so trees, power lines, car and pavement all got covered in ice, up to 2cm tick in places. Many tree and power lines came down because of the weight of the ice.
