Answer 1

Depends where you are going. UK, Ireland, France, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden etc, I would advise a hat, scarf, gloves, warm coat, warm clothing in general and an umbrella because it's going to be wet and cold.. If you're going to southern Europe-Italy, Cyprus, Greece etc., then take clothing that can be layered as it's warmer there but still chilly in the morning and evening.
A friend of mine went to Southern Ireland in February of last year, she took 3 pairs of jeans, 2 sweaters, 2 blouses, 1 casual/smart outfit and one semi formal outfit, long johns, hat, scarf, quilted jacket and lots of pairs of socks. She said she had never been so cold in her life and often wore 2 pairs of socks as well as the long johns under jeans. It does depend on where you are from too, if you are in a warm sunny place right now then you will need to wrap up warmly. If you are living in a wintry place, then take whatever you normally wear and prepare for rain. I'm from UK and when it rains it can soak you through to the skin.

Answer 2

It's cool to cold all over Europe at that time. But in southern Spain you could face temperatures 50-68 F, and in Scandinavia 5-32 F. All the rest between 32- 50 F... Except maybe on a very sunny day :-). A sweater, a good coat, warm pants, warm boots (for the north). Europe is not uniform - think Seattle to New Hampshire to Washington DC to Georgia or whatever...

Answer 3

It's going to be cold so take warm things you can layer and very comfortable boots and shoes.
