Guess what; we had snow last weekend! First time in 2 years.
Didn't last long, it went up to 10 degrees Celsius already. As customary of late.
A winter with no snow at all was pretty much unthinkable in the past, but it happened last winter.
There's a winter event they call the 'Elfstedentocht', a 200 km ice skating marathon in Friesland over frozen lakes and canals through 11 towns. We had 15 of those last century and none in this. I doubt it will ever happen again. There needs to be 2-3 weeks of continuous frost for the ice to be strong and stable enough, and those conditions do not occur here anymore.

And you are complaining about this?
Sounds like good news to me.
