It's ~4º C in Amsterdam. It's dry right now, but we've been experiencing some light drizzle the last few days.
It was pretty cold ten days ago, but then the wind changed, and the temperature rose.

-27 C when I walked off the night-train this morning. My week at my mothers was in the tropical parts of southern Sweden so I wasn't prepared for it. Oh well not that bad, at least it wasn't blowing.

Yep, It wasn't that bad actually. When I was leaving a week ago it was just -15 but it was blowing as well (not that much mind you but a little wind is bad enough) and that was much worse.

Kropotkin, oh man you guys have it bad!

I just checked, it's -22C in here, it's pretty cold yes.
I'm having a Buffy-marathon, so I'm wearing only boxers, so everytime I go for a smoke outside.. well it's freezy! Of course I put my shirt on, but still.. standing there for 3-4 minutes really wakes you up.

Grey, about 5 degrees, a little bit of a wind and light rain every now and then. Nothing unusual for the time of the year, really.

It's really sad with those teenagers that drink to much on NYE. They should learn from their elders, like me. I've only got a 70cl bottle of Tullamore Dew to consume. That's what I call adult behavior. Read and learn kids!
