Today is -6 degree Celsius in the morning.
It started to snow from the midnight of 4th, the thickness of the snow was about 4 to 5 inches, everywhere was covered with snow including the floor, the trees, the houses and the cars, etc.
The cars drive slowly on the road with the slippy ice melt by the engine. People with bicycle cycled very hard on the snow, it made them fall down easily. The two kids went outside the garden to play the snow balls and felt the cold with nearly frozen hands.
According to YL colleagues, it is the coldest year (-10 degree) they have ever met during these 10 years. It is very cold and full with snow, it seldom snow and so cold in Netherlands.
When we came back from Paris which is -2 degree on the 1st, Jan afternoon after 12 days travelling, our house heater need a whole day to raise the room temperature from 8 degree to 18 degree. Though 8 degree was warm compare to the outside temperature of -5, we still needed to wear our coats in the room as it was the coldest temperature in Taiwan that we had ever met .
Luckily, we can keep the room temperature warm to 22 degree again.
