Three German News Stories

 1.  I noticed off business news....the German gov't handed down a new regulation....to start in January (2024).  'IF' there is some type of risk of overloading the power grid....there is some regulation to say heat pumps in homes and e-car charging....can continue to some degree.

The idea of full and unrestricted load?  Gone.

A shock?  No....I doubt it, but if you went and asked about this two years ago....it would have never come up as a major discussion.

2.  This soccer game from the weekend between Stuttgart and Frankfurt?  200 wounded fans from the violence before and after the game.

3.  Major snowfall in the central region.  Just in my village....four roads in and out....all have been closed since 3 PM.  More snow expected tonight, Tuesday and Wednesday.  Right now, I'd say 7 inches have fallen.  Probably will get up to 20 inches by the end.
