WHAT'S YOUR WEATHER LIKE - 2017

Chucking it down

 

I wouldn't normally be quite happy to see rain which is now falling but it was very very cold here for 2 days and with the rain falling it has cleared away any ice and defrosted our LONG hose which feeds the water butt in the field. We've missed a pile of snow thank god as it is not a favourite of mine when dealing with a large animal it makes life quite diffuclt, so been lucky. Hopefully it stays mild otherwise white stuff will start to fall.

 

We didn't have any snow after, yay. But we have had freezing fog in the mornings but it clears up and we get some sun and wind, feels bitterly cold out though. We had a down pour last night and its cleared up to be a lovely morning and no freezing fog and no harsh wind

 

They look like strange gloves?

Often have trouble remembering the name of those things on the ends of your arms, so call them whatsits, err,........Oh yeah, they are called hands, I remember now.

 

Rain here today, the first we've had for a while. Mind you I say rain but it's that horrible drizzle that manages to soak through to the skin. 3C/37F

 

Its raining now, that is a kind of relief in a way as it means the temperature has rose a bit 8C today.
Only 6 at the moment but no frost forecast for the coming week I think.

 

After yesterday's rain I didn't expect to see a frost this morning but there again with the up and down temperatures it shouldn't have been a surprise. Plenty of sunshine saw off the frost mid afternoon even though the thermometer only rose by 1 degree to 2C/36F.

 

A heavy frost this morning and around 9am the temperature read -5C/23F. The day brightened with a fair amount of sunshine but it didn't clear the frost, the temperature reached a high of -1C/30F.
