Global warming hits Finland...



Helsinki finally rids self of giant pile of snow from last winter


In Helsinki, Finland, 20,000 truckloads of snow plowed from city streets throughout last winter was stacked into a huge pile, which is only now finally melting away. Just in time for next winter. The pile was measured at 27 meters (more than 88 feet) high in April. Last week, the height dipped below 1 meter (3 feet), which was enough for the local newspaper to declare victory.
