Total cloud cover and very gentle snowfall with a gentle northerly breeze today. The weather forecast say -9 C but the thermometer by my front door says -11 C.
Today's outdoor outfit is a green Norwegian made coat with a detachable hood. I think this is the first time for several years that I have worn it with the hood. The scarf is my wife's university scarf. I never bought one of my own and this is the first time that I have worn hers, for some reason it just didn't feel right before.

@Musicman -11 C or thereabouts, probably feels like -16 C when you take into account the 3 m/s northerly breeze.
It's not too bad if you dress properly. There's a saying here
det finnes ikke dårlig vær bare dårlige klær
It rhymes in Norwegian but I can't make it rhyme in English, and it's less succinct in English
There's no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing
In the first and third pictures you can see a strip of open water. In past decades that would all be frozen by February but we expect the temperature to be just above freezing from Wednesday until at least the end of the month so I don't think we will see enough ice to walk on this year.
@ninalanyon Oh good Lord! That is freezing! Our pool is open for swimming year round. I am meeting a friend for lunch. I will definitely be wearing shorts today and will have the air conditioning running in the car.
