cold in Low Saxon and German, here with my additions:</p>

<ol style="margin-top: 0in; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" start="1" type="1"><li style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"><b>Hunn'küll</b> (<i>Hunnenküll</i>,<i> </i>Hundekälte, “dog cold”): cold weather

German also <i>Eismänner</i> “ice men” and <i>gestrenge Herren</i> “severe/austere/grim
gentlemen”<br>
Limburgish<i> iesheilige</i> (“ice saints”)<br>Dutch<i> ijsheiligen</i> (“ice saints”)<br>
Swedish <i>järnnätter</i> (“iron nights”, apparently mistranslating “ice” as “iron”
from Low Saxon <i>Ies ~ Iesen</i> or German <i>Eis</i> ~ <i>Eisen</i>)<br>
Polish <i>zimni ogrodnicy</i> (“gardener’s cold”)<br>
Lithuanian <i>Ledo Šventųjų </i>(“ice saints”)<br>
Latvian <i>Ledus Svēto</i> (“ice saints”)<br>
French <i>saints de glace</i> (“ice saints”)<br>
Italian <i>santi di ghiaccio</i> (“ice saints”)<br>
Hungarian<i> fagyosszentek</i> (“chilly saints”)<br>
I have a feeling that this idea emanated from a German-speaking region.<br>

Any more such expressions revealing traditional weather lore?</p>
<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal">In fact, we too have such weather
right now, although at the moment it looks as though the sun is trying to make a
comeback.</p>
