One day from living in Russia Winter time starts in Russia around November. It's snowing, and the temperature is -10-15C) But this year we have natural anomaly - no snow, no frost. Sometimes the temperature is above zero. The great holiday for every russian - is New Year (31 December - 1 January). But New Year without snow is not good holiday! Because in the winter we can build snowmen, slide down from icy hill and have lots of other fun) and are you waiting for the celebration of Christmas or new year?) P.S. the picture is from my city
