it "rained" 10cm of ice in Morelia

Damn, the drops of ice were really bad (about 1cm diameter each drop), i almost got stuck in my car.

I feel like in Canada.

And all those cms in just 20-30 minutes.

I'm hearing the ambulances right now.

OK, this is getting worse, i'm hearing LOTS of ambulances.

Near and far. When i was driving back i lost my brakes (because of the level of the water-ice, wet brakes = no go).

A lot of people must have smashed their cars, and people that was walking......i'm sorry for them.

The depth of the ice, reached 40cm in some parts of the city.

And some houses are going to fall, according to the local news.

Some cases of Hipothermia, and the militaries are already going out to help people in some neighbourhoods.
