      Very bright, very still and frosty morning here - not what I was expecting given the stormy forecast

      Bit breezy in Medway - I only know this as I can see my Hellibores shivering out the front!

        It's absolutely foul here, the dog walk was a chore not a pleasure, but we are both home now and curled up in front of the log burner.

            Don't know how anyone else fared but by 5pm the sky went dark with cloud, the wind picked up and the rain lashed down like a burst bladder.
            Calm by this morning though :) Although that cloud is thickening up a bit :th scifD36:

                  I thought it was going to be bad today? The sun is shining, the sky is blue....it's a bit windy but maybe it's going to get worse later. :dunno:

                  Come down here, we had the sun shining, heavy rain, snow and the wind is very cold, but i look on the bight side we haven't had too much rain with the high tides to be a problem, yet :whistle:
                  the worst bit is the cold wind running through the valleys :sick0026: the temp gauge says 7c but you stand in the wind and it's not 7c more like -7c

                    It's 7c here too Jiffy but the wind just cuts straight through you, it feels much colder.
                    We've had sun, hail & rain. I don't think the forecast for the next couple of days is much better....we neeeeed spring! :spinning:
