This whole winter it has been strangely mild. There wasn't even a hint of snow before Christmas. Suddenly, two weeks ago, it was incredibly cold. Below freezing, even in fahrenheit. The Danube looked like this:
Now, I did not take either of these lovely photos, rather I got them from my very good facebook friend, Budapest. (Yes, I am fb friends with Budapest. They give me the forecast and tell me about cool upcoming events every day.) But they show the blocks of ice floating down the river.
It has since gotten consistently warmer. Yesterday and today, it was in the high forties! I biked to work today, and didn't even need my mittens on the way home this afternoon. Craziness. Does that mean spring is on the way, or is it just going to snow in May or something?
