Freeze in Moscow

The last days in Moscow were very cold. There is a lot of snow on the streets everywhere. Near my work is the area for meltdown snow. It is a special place where trucks bring snow cleaned from the streets. As I mean, the snow is turned into the water with warming and dropped to the collector system. That place full of real mountains of snow and everyday new trucks bring more and more snow. Overhead this place always are the huge clouds of steam.

My wife showed us a trick. She boiled water and poured it into a big cup. Then, she opened a window and threw it outside. The water instantly was turned into a cloud of steam. It was a very beautiful show, but you could view it only on the actual frozen day.
