Just taken a screenshot of the Nor easter storm - look how marginal the rain/snow line is!?

Rain in southern New Jersey - Snow in north, Rain over DC now after sleet- Rain over Baltimore and Philadelphia - Heavy snow in NYC but rain only a couple miles to the south of Long Island. - Real wintry mix bag there!

Here is a webcam in the city of Ust-Kut in Siberia. It is the Lena Railway station on the East Siberian railway. Ust Kut sits on the banks of the Lena River.

And here is one in  Omsk, also in Siberia.

I won't repeat my rant as it belongs in the rant thread but given many parts of the south saw no snow if any it was a slushy deposit which melted and cold rain for most Amsterdam (below sea level) has had a good covering of snow and a daytime high of -2c today 16/01/2021:

Maybe this has been on already, but I love clicking on this link, put the zoom up to 200% (so that I don't have to open up any windows) and catch the river levels around the UK.

I've just noticed that the first snow of the winter has fallen to low levels in the north of Iceland. It will come and go for a few weeks before it tends to remain for the rest of the winter. Somewhat earlier than last year to when the first snow arrived I think in October.

Nice place, Akureyri. "Capital of the North"

I can imagine Beast enjoying the Beer Bath.

Bjórböðin ('Beer Bath') SPA opened in 2017 and offers visitors the unique opportunity to soak in a relaxing bath of young beer and live beer yeast.

I was in northern Iceland in mid September two years ago and there was a bit of snow around. The hills surrounding Isafjordur (in the Westfjords) were dusted with white and I think we had a bit of snow falling even at sea level one evening. By the time we got to Akureyri a few days later  it was actually pretty mild (mid to high teens) after a fairly potent front went through giving us a couple of days of torrential rain (heavy enough even for the Icelandic Met Office to put out warnings!).

Missed the beer bath though!

Sorry to hear that, Rob. Next time perhaps?

Near Myvatn there were underground natural hot springs under the old lava flow where you could soak your tired muscles - one for chaps, one for lasses and one mixed. I hear the water temp has become a bit too high for comfort since - I hope that's not true. They now have well organised "Nature Baths" - nice no doubt but it's not so primal!

By now there is usually a complete (but thin) snow cover but it has been a fairly mild autumn so far so this is happening a little later. Next week it's looking like sub-zero temperatures will return.
