Winter? Not so far

Winter is a bit slow in coming to Moscow this year.

A third of the winter month of December is behind us already but the weather is in the plus range and there's almost know snow.

Nothing like what it was, say, in January of last year (2014) as I captured in these pictures.

But there is still time for things to get colder. The current forecast is that some semblance of winter cold will arrive in a week or so.
