Driving in the snow and the roadworks

Argh! The city started digging up half the riverfront in early December. With all the snow and the freeze, the work hasn't progressed at all. There's not even a sign explaining the aim and duration...

Jingle sodding bells again...

Enough! It's not funny anymore. The flags of the University of Liège agree with me.

Let the sunshine in...

Yep, let the sunshine in. Talk about mistimed advertisement!

Empty terraces

The sudden snow emptied all the café terraces.

Old city walls and snow

Parts of the old city fortifications underneath St Martin's, with snow. Yes, the snow is back.

Another wintery scene

It's still winter so why not?

Return of the snow!

Students going to college in snowy misery. Clearly, winter is not over just yet.

The thaw

Well, the snow has almost disappeared from the city centre but there's still lot of it in the university grounds in Sart Tilman.

One more snowy shot

The snow started to melt but the weather forecast predicts more snowfall for tomorrow morning. I believe it is fitting that I should post yet another photograph of Liège in the snow. This one features the St Croix church quite prominently, I daresay (I've been watching Downton Abbey).

Tyres in the snow

It snowed again this morning. Even used tyres dumped in a construction site look pretty when covered in snow.

Still white

No snow today but it's bitterly cold and the snow has stayed on the rooftops and pavements. That does not make a difference to the recently renovated opera, it's white anyway. The former church of St Andrew looks quite atmospheric though.

The aftermath

Two shots of the aftermath of yesterday's snowfall. Everything has been lightly dry-brushed with white.

Snow!

The weather forecast has been warning of snow for about a week. It has finally arrived, although it's not quite a snowmageddon...

Unexpected Christmas invasion

Christmas unexpectedly invaded Liège today, bringing with it enormous snowflakes and the distant sound of sleigh bells. The invasion only lasted for 10 minutes but it was impressive. Shock and awe!

The diggers have been parked and idle for two weeks.

Church, snowy roof and a bit of sky

Sorry excuse for a Skywatch this week, but I didn't have anything better.
