it depends what you mean with "East Europe", but really no 2 years are ever the same. If I'd had to generalize -starting from the top with Northern Europe - Finland, Baltics, North Poland - days are short, and cloud base is very low and thick around December, very few days with sunshine. Generally windy (not stormy thou), wet and miserable. January and February are the cold months with mostly clear skies, low winds but temperatures can and will drop well below -20°C. Outside clear sky days, it will be warmer (-10, -5ish) but could be accompanied by lots of snow. March can see literally anything, sunny warm days can mix with bitterly cold ones - heavy snow falls can come from nowhere.

down south from Warsaw, the weather can get more unpredictable, depending on the airflows, highs and lows, Hungary, for example can be anything between -15 to +15 in January. Last winter brought many, many days of really poor visibility/haze due to high pressure stagnating around the area. North easterly winds can bring cold and dry weather, anything from south will generate a milder, yet wetter pattern.

Balkans, Greece, Romania, Bulgaria are worth an entire separate article on them selves, for example, Bulgarian coastline will have it's own micro-climate vastly different from the rest of the country
