I am living in Nanjing, China. I am from Canada. China did not experience a snow disaster. If this is a snow disaster then Toronto Canada gets a snow disaster several times a week in the winter time.

This was not a big snowfall. The most snowfall any part of China received in one day was 4-6 cm.

Toronto has already had 10 days of snowfall exceeding that and there was no disaster.

What was a disaster was how the snow was handled

No salt or sand was used on any of the roads!!

No wonder the streets were skating rinks!

Dont blame mother nature.

 They should hire someone from Canada to deal with this
