What's your weather - 2016

Is that legal?

 

Kuga are good too @Sheal - the only thing that put me off one was the titchy wee radio screen buried away in the dash.

 

See what I mean? Titchy screen:

 

I've been in Manchester during the day on and off this week and it's was dry and fairly warm and there is one good thing that I like about Manchester and Birmingham...........the road out!! So right now the skies are slightly cloudy here in Cheshire, the temperature is 50f and the pressure reading is 1027mbs.

 

I did as it happens - confused our optician when we bought our new glasses a few weeks ago, as she tried to sell me polarised sunglasses, and I told her I wouldn't have them again as they were useless for driving with; they can also cause some odd effects with some windscreens (particularly rear screens) too. I went for the transitions lenses this time for my main specs, and got my spare pair with a light tint

 

Yes, the ones that darken - I don't like wearing dark shades when I am driving, so I will wear the tinted pair and use the sun visor. My main reason for going for them was the fact that my eyes generally don't like bright light, especially bright daylight, and the transitions cut out just the right amount. If it is full on sunshine, then I still have my shades which are close enough to my current prescription to make no difference (there was next to no change in my prescription this time).

Did I hear right that you have a weather warning for gales?

 

I also have to factor in the use driving buses/coaches - the sunlight effect is different than it is in a car or van, hence going for the tinted set.

It is about the right time of year for it to get a bit wild up there - usually lasts until early December, and then the weather heads for the much colder side.

 

Yesterday was a warm sunny day but it dropped to its lowest temperature last night of 45.7F/7.6C. With the bright sunshine we already have this morning it's already up to 53.8F/12C. It's going to be a lovely day.
