It has actually been unusually cold, -9c this morning, a temperature which is not seen most winters.
It is colder in Germany and horribly cold in Serbia. I heard the temperature in Ankara in Turkey got down to -20c.
There is 3 or 4" of snow out there now and it is still coming down. We seldom get much more than a light dusting here and in quite a few winters there is no snow at all.
Up until a few days ago this winter had been unusually mild with only a couple of overnight frosts and no trace of snow.
