A warm winter in Europe

Does this:
"The winds whipped rain across Europe in the middle of an unusually warm winter. The strongest wind speeds -- over 200 kph -- were measured in the mountains of upper Bavaria and in southern Poland. In the German state of Brandenburg 150,000 households suffered power cuts, and Frankfurt's international airport cancelled at least 200 flights (out of 1,300). One stranded passenger in Düsseldorf faced the delay with gallows humor: "If you want to fly now, you don't need an airplane," she said."
