Wonderful winterweather

Hello all!
Well, the subject here is a bit ironic.
But, let's start a topic, where we can talk about funny airports to fly in to due to winter weather!
I will start:
Airport: Frankfurt Hahn / EDFH / HHN
Located: 56nm from the big Frankfurt Main Airport in Germany
Weather: During the winter, the weather in Frankfurt-Hahn, forces the controllers and pilots to use CAT IIIB approaches. The airfield elevation is 1549ft above MSL, which means you often will see clouds just 100ft above the ground. Atlas Air has 5 flights a week, into Hahn.
Come with your experiences!
