It's incredible. This year the rule for winter weather in Denmark have been nothing but 3-7° C, rain, rain and some more rain. Throw in complete cloud coverage, so it's gray all the time when the sun is up.
Everything is soaked--went to my small summerhouse the other day, and it's so wet that one sinks in the grass breaking the lawn. Of course there's been the usual 'Breaking News' that winter is finally coming, but then it freezes for 1-2 days and when a bit of snow finally arrives (in all other parts of the country than my town of course), it's not freezing outside no more, so it turns into a wet nasty substance, which sticks around for a day or two before it's washed away by the rain.
No, let me tell you Ladies and Gentlemen: it was a lot better when I was a kid; on the evening of November 30th, we would prepare ourselves for waking up to 30 cm of powder snow in the morning of December 1st, ready for us to go play in. It would then keep snowing 5 cm every other day, right until end of February. On March 1st we would then get the first warm days, with clear blue sky, and spring clearly on it's way.
