WINTER IN EUROPE

Little curious about what happening there in Europe when they raised up winter then I read couple of articles and share a view on this post.

The winter of 2010 - 2011 in Europe began with an unusually cold November caused by a cold weather cycle that started in southern Scandinavia and subsequently moved south and west over both Belgium and the Netherlands on 25 November and into the west of Scotland and North East England on 26 November. This was due to a low pressure zone in the Baltics, with a high pressure over Greenland on 24 November.

From 22 November 2010, cold conditions arrived in the United Kingdom, as a cold northerly wind developed and snow began to fall in northern and eastern parts, causing disruption. The winter arrived particularly early for the European climate, with temperatures dropping significantly lower than previous lows for the month of November.

Heavy snow fall was reported across higher parts of the country on November 26 and in lowland Switzerland on the 27th. The temperatures hovered between +5 and -5 °C (41 and 23 °F) for the next 8 days, with November 30 to December 1 having a nighttime temperature of −11 °C (12.2 °F).

A record −15.3 °C (4 °F) was measured during November in Orleans, France

Severe blizzards hit Southern Sweden and Denmark, affecting flights at Copenhagen Airport. Over 30 centimetres (12 in) of snow fell. Helsinki and Stockholm recorded their coldest November nights on record, at -20 and -17 °C , respectively (-4 and 1 °F).

Well, it’s surely cold as an ice on your freezer then, damnly freezing! But it also an extremely glorious time for touching those snow and having fun with the cold weather ;D
