Mixed effects of cold and wet start to winter
In most parts of Europe, temperatures dropped abruptly at the end of November/early December, often accompanied by continued wetter-than-usual conditions. In large parts of central and northern Europe, temperatures reached distinctly negative values, while winter crops were still relatively vulnerable to frost due to the preceding warmer-than-usual conditions and late sowing. Overly wet conditions disturbed the end of sowing in northern France, the Benelux countries and western Germany. Rain deficits in the western Mediterranean region, are of particular concern in Sicily, northern Morocco and western Algeria.
