Fast drop, from light drizzle and 55 F, dry for now but 29 F and maybe going down. Winds gusting to 60 MPH. I think I have things battened down, awaiting possible lake effect snows. Power backups charged.

My daughter who lives and works in the Netherlands , said that she has snow there, too. She was back home in the States over the Christmas holiday, but flew back home late Saturday, and said she drove home in snow. They seldom have snow there, and when they do, it usually does not last long. It looks like they still have more snow coming through, which might be a good thing for my daughter right now.Here’s the weather for today (Wednesday, 31 Dec 2025) in Halton, England (UK): The Weather Channel

General UK context: Much of the UK is in a cold snap with frosts and wintry conditions around the New Year, with weather warnings and very low temperatures in places — so expect it to feel quite brisk outdoors.

The snow we got is now blown around in drifts. 50+ mph winds and more snow possible this afternoon. As long as the wind is blowing, the actual air temperature stays above 0 F., but when the wind dies, the temps drop. My wife received a picture of her thermometer outside her house in Delta. It read -65 F. this morning. Just a bit nippy!
Dense fog this morning. It's beautiful if you don't have to drive in it.
