Now for the weather forecast

We've been dreading a wet and windy Christmas day for some time now, but the latest forecasts give a 50/60% chance of light rain so perhaps it will not be so bad. The meteo records say that Christmas day 2001 was the coldest on record here at -10`C but we had been in our new house in Varen just 10 days and we remember how beautiful it was to sit in the sun. Ironically 2002 was the warmest at 15`C, but we cant remember that.
Our Dutch neighbours sent a photo of their house further along the road,  last winter and did we really have that much snow?
