    It was a bit colder last night with a low of 50F (10C). The sun is just coming out now. It's staring to get lazy and going to bed earlier and getting up later. :SUNsmile: :nonofinger:

        Calm and dry.....blue skies appearing. Feeling warm again. In for a nice day :)
        My impression too, Shiney, that the sun is a tad lazy these days!:snorky:

            Clear skies for a while last night and then some cloud but, in the morning, there was ice on the Observatory so the cloud must has disappeared again. So there are clear skies again today and tonight but despite all the glorious sunshine the maximum temperature was only 60f. Right now the temperature is 47f and the pressure reading is 1017hpa. If you look at the Moon tonight you'll see Mars sitting right next to it on your right as you look at it.:love30::coffee::snorky:

              I'm guessing there is around twenty minutes difference between yours and our sunset at the moment @shiney. The nights draw in quicker here, two minutes a day and three every third day. It will be dark in December around 3.30pm and today sunset was at 6.07pm. We have the bonus of longer lighter evenings in the summer though.

              Mostly sunny today with a light breeze but some darker clouds lurking from time to time. 11C/52F

                @Sheal Our sunset was 17.55 yesterday so just a 12 minute difference.

                It was a sunny day and the sun is awake and at work this morning. Only 40F.

                  Hmmm! Sun is real lazy so far! :noidea:
                  However, blue skies are appearing, it is dry and it's calm. A pleasant day to come :SUNsmile:

                        Min of 5.9C last night and 16.2C today, sunny.
                        Wind has a bit of a cold feel these days, and set to get colder next week I think, possible we might get our first frost.
                        Sunrise 7.28
                        Sunset 5.56
                        We are losing more than 3 mins a day at the moment.
                        Sun angle at noon, 28.6 degrees.

                                Really! I hadn't realised just how much our evenings had drawn in here. :doh:

                                Funny you should say that @pete. I've just been looking at the forecast here and we're promised light snow for Saturday of next week.

                                Today has been calm, dry with a lot of cloud around and some sunny spells. 11C/52F
