Dreaming of a white christmas

It's been above zero and raining occasionally for a few days. And it's like that for many more days to come so it doesn't look like a white christmas for this year. I'm not sure if I've experienced a single "black christmas" before. Some year there was just a centimetre or a few of snow on christmas eve, and it melted away in a few days. It's very slippery too. Well, in those spots where the ice hasn't yet melted...

P.S. The new pedestrian street in this pic is heated so it wouldn't have snow anyway. But it looks like this everywhere. Except that elsewhre is a lot of gravel on streets, used to prevent slipperiness.
