Standard winter conditions for that part of Russia though.
Kaliningrad is not really part of Russia, it's an accident of history.
As we all know it's part of the Baltic states/northern Poland region, and it's not standard winter conditions currently either.

FYI current weather is really quite ferocious with a first winter storm over the whole region - a winter depression currently centred over exactly that area in Lithuania, + heavy icing in the Baltic sea off Helsinki wave height 2-4m.

Wind swung from SW to E to N in a matter of hours.
Ask me how I know!

Outside temp -12C the wind adding a further -10C to it.
