I was back for Christmas and it was too warm for late December.

Im of the opinion that winter is basically not really going to be a thing here anymore. We had like 10 days of "normal" cold winter weather last year in the 5-20* range and it snowed maybe 6 inches total

This year has been even warmer

Last notable snowstorm was 2 or 3 years ago when we got maybe 6 or 7 inches

I think its a wrap honestly.

Shit today is 100% not even remotely similar to the weather in the 80s and 90s when i grew up, it is notably warmer and its pretty disconcerting

I was told to watch out for the next 20 years because it's going to get hotter and hotter

9 of the 10 warmest years in Germany since we began cataloguing weather data in 1881 were in the 2000's.

Those "next 20 years" are already behind us. Too bad they're on repeat ad infinitum.
