It's now 17:51 CET and the T = -2.1 C = 28 F (+/-). People here are skating on the ice, (not indoors). It was a nice day for it because it was sunny almost the whole day. Now it's foggy and dark.

This could be considered a typical Dutch picture. Surely in the past. We haven't had this stretch of cold days on end for years. Most Dutch folks are hoping that it will last a bit longer, i.e. the cold weather because then we could have 'the 11 cities tour or journey'.
'De Elfstedentocht'. A ice skating event (>200 km long) in Friesland (in the North of Holland) , last time possible in 1997. Dutch madness that exists for over 100 years.

Gets cold here but hardly ever ices or snows, wish it did. That looks like fun!
Today it's 25 degrees F and yesterday it was 60 F!
The weather's very dry, windy, and cold. It never fails to amaze me how quick the weather changes everyday within a season!
