#ClimateDiary Through canvassing #Potholes are pretty prominent in my mind atm. For those of you not in the UK: potholes have become a focal point in UK local, even national politics. A bit of a cliche etc but they are, indeed, terrible - and getting much worse due to climate change (will add some of my own pictures below). Would be interesting to know how bad they are in other countries?

I drive a lot more carefully since I've seen an entire front wheel, suspension, McPherson strut and swing arm lay on the side of the road, torn out of a car just outside Vilnius one winter 😬
And avoid puddles. You don't know if they're shallow or hide a hole half a meter deep.
For some, the first sign of spring is blooming snowdrops. For others, it is potholes opening up in the roads. Even before the end of February, their number is increasing – including on Lithuania’s main highways – with some drivers already reporting damage to their cars.
