Ice and water

We have had some roller coaster weather here this winter. The Christmas time winter wonderland melted away, giving way to frost, that turned into a snow world again overnight. We had 30cm of new snow within a few days and then the "heatwave" hit us again, melting everything away, leaving the world a wet icy mess.

 

From winter wonderland to frost

Our winter wonderland gave way to plus degrees and wet ice. The ground was treacherously slippery for several days until everything froze again and new snow covered the world. Not as much snow, only a few centimeters dry frosty snow that squeaks under your shoes. No fluff on the trees either, but tiny ice crystals that glisten in the January sun.
