    You may not be far wrong @Jack McHammocklashing, we've had some minor snow here over the last couple of days and it hasn't made it above -1C/30F today.

                Images of storm Angus have been on the news over here. Hope no parts of Blighty have broken off and been washed further away from Europe! :scared:

                    We didn't have any problems with storm Angus but are now being battered by a new low pressure coming through and while out and about this morning have seen a lot of standing water on the roads as some of the road drains are full with leaves so the water is bubbling out of the drains:snorky:

                    We now have load cloud in our village as we are up on a hill and just had the most horrendous downpour so all the birdies trying to feed in the garden are soaked through:sad:

                    Saw on the news and on the Highlands and Islands map that Braemar got down to -12 last night:yikes:
