South-Eastern part of Austria. On monday and tuesday we had a very stormy weather. You would better stay inside unless there were no real reasons to go out. It is about 3-4 °C in the daytime which fits to december. Although during the last decembers temperatures were about 7 - 10°.
But what is most interesting: Since that heavy floods in September we nearly had rain or snow. This is definitely unusual . . .
 
Here in my place in Central-Eastern Germany the weather hadn't become particularly cold so far either. It has been less chilly than in November, but wetter. There were stretches of the weather being stormy, and also spring-like.

To add to the list of unusual phenomena regarding nature: When driving up to my aunt's today for a family Christmas gathering (she lives a few hours up North from us), we saw a rose bush with pink blooming roses in a village we passed through. Don't remember seeing a rose bush in full bloom at the end of December. Also, in the garden of the place where I grew up snowdrops are showing their tips already.
 
In SC Alaska, it is 25°F (-3.8°C). It has been between 30 to 40 degrees over the last week, so it is warmer than average. This year's snow accumulation is scant, and the south facing slopes have no snow cover.

I woke this morning to a trumpeting sound, I thought was a road grader or plow truck, but it sounded different... it happened several more times and it had a resonance that sounded like a wind event - even though at ground level it is a slight breeze. You can hear the wind, just like you hear a river off in the distance.

So, I checked the local news, and there were reports of 100 mph winds, with one home losing its roof! This was two days prior.

Around my house, the wind was strong enough to briefly knock out the power.

So, it is warmer and windy here.
