have you noticed a warming up of the climate?

I came back to Sweden in 2014 and I haven't even faced temperatures below -20 C here. The winters have become slightly shorter than they used to be.

In North Europe summers are not any warmer than before but winters have become warmer and bit shorter (autumn is now bit longer).

Ups. I wrote just the same

really? here we normally have snow at least one time in the year ... i expected belgium to be always snowy in december

No mountains here, not even hills for my region. I guess it affects climate. However, it used to be different. Ice skating was typically part of Dutch culture, even Southern Dutch. 400 to 500 years ago there the Little Ice Age was still on-going and it shows in paintings.





(peculiar painting this one, mountains which don't exist here. In his early life, Bruegel did travel to Rome to study, though).

I don't even know how to ice skate. Our generation lost the tradition. It's only truly practiced in the Northern Netherlands, mainly Friesland today, though it has been more than 20 years since they held their Elfstedentocht (in 1997; after their one in 1986). Soon they'll have an entire generation that never had experienced it, sadly.

The worst winter in recent history, though, has got to be the one my parents experienced in 1963-'64. The coldest winter since the revolution year 1789 (that date is no coincidence I think).

Maybe, in stockholm we get decent winters, not -30 that often anymore.
Up north at our winter house we get -30 to -55 every winter

Snow has falled already here and most of Northern Europe doesn't have any yet.

I think global warming has missed the Rila and Rhodope mountains.

Bulgaria seems to get lots of snow and cold in the winter.

I have noticed more intense storms in Zagreb which I usually associated with the coastal Croatia.

This year the period between April-June was way higher than average as you can see here:

If you browse through the last years on that website you'll see summers have been typically higher than average.

Now the temperatures are normal (in Lisbon region), but it should be raining. Lack of rain in autumn and winter has been another characteristic of the last years.
