Limits the long term forecast for winter 2011/12 represents a textbook example that just for the Central European area, long-term forecasts are difficult for themselves and in the future also will remain there.
After the winter in December and for a long time in January was almost completely dominated by mild winds, was not assumed, that is to be expected with a complete and sustainable change in the circulation for the remainder.
In the past rarely a case was found, where a very mild first half of winter without any evidence for an early amendment of the General weather situation is followed by a second half of such cold.
Therefore, this year's winter as some like can be viewed.
Because the prediction models for the next 7 days continue to forecast severe cold, can be now said that this February will probably be one of the coldest of its kind of the last 50 years.
This is from www.langfristwetter. de and I must say that we are cold to our bones. People started to let the roller shutters of their houses shut for the whole day to avoid their houses cooling down too much. We also did so. It's not very comfortable being in the dark all the time, but the cold outside is terrible. Tonight it is -4°F and it gets colder from day to day. I'm sitting here wrapped in my featherbed and are still feeling cold. The heatings don't manage to make our rooms warm enough.
I am sorry that your weather is cold and your heat is crap! But wow, what a great picture!
Stay wrapped up and stay warm!

I'm just looking out of the window: Most roller shutters of my neighbors still shut and it is afternoon, not evening. It's really bad this cold. Yeah, but nature is beautiful, you are right, Ree. Greetings!
