All people especially children want fluffy white snow on streets and trees, people want to skate, sledding, to make a snowman. People want to have a sense of magic at this festive magical time.

When will we have a real winter?

It is a the middle of December, *Christmas Eve almost. But there is a disgusting weather in Moscow. All people, especially children, want fluffy white snow on streets and trees: people want to skate, to sled, sledding, or to make a snowman. People want to have a sense of magic at this festive magical time. **However, all we have are temperature above zero, melted snow, puddles, mud in the streets.

*it sounds a little more natural to say, "It is the middle of December, almost Christmas Eve, but the weather isn't nice in Moscow." Disgusting is a strong word. You might say it for a situation like, "We smelled rotten meat in the garbage and it was disgusting." 

**I would rephrase as: "However, our temperatures are above zero and the snow is melting. Now we have mud puddles in the streets."


It's 60 degrees F (15.5 Celsius) today where I live so... yes, I understand this. Хорошая работа!
