We drove to Provence and back today -- south of Carcassonne the sun came out (it is the line between different types of weather systems), but the wind!!! South of Avignon where we went, it was sunny and about 5° -- I'm guessing because the mistral was so strong that it felt below 0. All along the freeway running past Montpellier, Arles, etc there were wind warnings posted.

I notice a thick layer of old threads has fallen on WE overnight - tedious to get through, anyone has a decent shovel?

#Nautiker, colour of those threads, virginally white?
Tomorrow after the last snowdrops having fallen, my shovel will be available. Including pea soup.

Nautiker -- I saw that too -- couldn't figure out what was happening.

To stick with the thread topic, it's raining here.

We have sunshine, but more and more clouds. Neither rainfall nor snowfall last night; it was too cold for both.

hi all.

I switched to 'recently posted' from 'recently replied' (so I don't have to worry about colour, arie, btw, pea soup sounds yummy).

what about the elfstedentocht? plenty of ice here, even without the canals.

No Elfstedentocht, the ice seemed to get strong enough but this weeks´s snow and a combination of strong wind didn´t make it safe enough in Friesland..
Yesterday (50,000 skaters) and today some big tours in the Giethoorn area
Dutch championship on natural ice on Veluwe Lake near Elburg.

But since many years they organise an alternative Elftedentocht, mostly on the Austrian Weissensee. Planned for 2 February.

Sweltering 8° in Paris until further notice -- except I think that they said something about 14° in a week.
