1 If you wear thick socks, make sure your boots are not tight. It is dead air that keeps you warm. Compressed material is not warm. And, if it is too tight, you lose circulation. Blood circulation is what brings warmth to your feet. 2. You need layers. You may dress warmly for standing, but once you walk for a while, you may get hot. Never allow yourself to sweat in the cold. Your sweat makes it difficult to retain heat. If you stop for a while, you will get very cold very fast. 3. Use the big fat guy on the tour as a wind break. 😋

Had to laugh about the snow. I was in Prague yesterday. Whole Tábor is under snow, the whole countryside on the way is under snow but once you get to Prague, nothing. And the few snowflakes that were falling changed quickly in to the water on the ground. Btw. take really warm clothes if you go to Loreta, was there yesterday for an hour and got pretty frozen.

Sock liners and good wool socks plus a warm hat. If you can keep you feet and head warm, you have won half the battle. When I was looking at the astronomical clock there was a booth roasting meat in the square. It smelled fantastic and I was hungry, but I was so cold I ate at an indoor restaurant to warm up. The struggle is real. Thanks for another great video.

Yep, we don't have so much cold winters but the high humidity and very common wind even if it usually not so strong make it unpleasant. Also the fogs some years occur a lot since the end of October to the end of February. Prague was always quite warm with little snowcoverage compared to the rest of the Czechia but last dozens years and especially last few years it is very rare it would be covered by snow for a few days and also it was freezing you could play ice hockey on frozen pond. Coming to Prague for "beautiful winter romance" is very naive. It is just gray, brown and dark for a 3-4 months.

The problem with snow in Prague is that as the city grew it became an island of increased temperature. The average temperature is higher now than it was lets say some decades ago and therefore even if it snows the snow rarely stays longer. And it's a pity because Prague is most beautiful covered by snow.

Global warming caused that especially winter months became warmer. December and January got on average almost 3°C warmer since 1961. So we have like few days or max 1-2 weeks of daily freezing temps but mostly it is 0-10°C sometimes even more. But people still have in their minds how it used to be and imagine Prague in winter covered by snow and ice which is now very rare.

Hello, I just found your videos. I do not subscribe to many, but yours is very entertaining and you get right to the point and you have a nice personality. I’m looking forward to visiting Prague and enjoying the beauty of your country and everything it has to offer. I am a big beer lover and I’m looking forward to trying all the different local beers across Prague and the Czech Republic. My sister and brother-in-law were there last year and they just loved it and told me that it’s right up my alley. Those coffee shops and cafés look wonderful. I would never visit a Starbucks, especially in a different country. Not my kind of place. I do everything local and support all the local businesses. Winter is my favorite time of year so I will be there when it’s nice and cold. I am very glad I found your videos. Good stuff and the food looks wonderful. I will try everything that’s for sure. Once again, I really enjoy your videos . Take care.👍❄️

Overal preticipation in January is low but it is raining/snowing and something between it quite often. But mostly it is like mild drizzling not heavy rain like in the summer. In the winter February is better because you already have some sun which starts to be warmer and days are longer. Especially the end od February already has the vibe od early spring.

If you will be lucky maybe few days in February but that is all. March is not much nice and still quite cold with daily temps 5-12°C but April is beautiful when everything is getting green and blossoming and first warm days are occuring. May with its long days and lot of sunshine already feels almost like summer, especially at the second half has temps 20-25°C. Basically, Prague is good to visit almost entire year maybe except heat waves in summer with 30°C+ which are like 1/3 of the summer or time between half of November and end of January because of too much darkness when it is dark in 4:30 pm. On the other hand you have Christmass time which has its spirit.
