[Aleman]

 Regular very light wintery showers with sunny intervals -  icing sugar, graupel then very light "normal" flakes, all settling but too little to measure (at about 30m elevation).  That's 5 dustings of snow this season which all showed as rain on radar. Currently 0.1C after -2.3C overnight.

[Frigid]

The snow from Monday still on the ground. Low of -5c and a high forecasted to be 0. So freezing all day. Looking at the charts, a heavy dumping of snow is supposed to fall in my area today. Coldest start to a year since 2010.
