The Netherlands in grip of brief cold snap

Tuesday 26 January 2010

The north of the Netherlands is in the grip of a brief very cold snap, with temperatures down to as much as -12 Celsius on the IJsselmeer on Monday night.

But in the south and Zeeland, temperatures barely dipped under zero, the KNMI weather bureau said.

It will remain well below freezing all day in the north. On Tuesday night, thermometers will dip as low as -15 Celsius but it will feel even colder in the wind.

Take it easy, guys! We have -20 (day) and down to -25 every night here in Ukraine. And we are still alive =) In addition it happens that there is no hot water in flats.. So, be happy about your "cold" winters
Warm regards from Ukraine!

The "global warming" commentators need to wake up, it's not the nineties anymore. It's not called global warming, but climate change.

It would be a good idea, all the climate changes conferences to take place in the times deep freeze like now. So all the green activists can feel the "global warming", they are protesting against.
