WHAT'S YOUR WEATHER LIKE - 2017 a

Watched the chicken torturer's car go down the lane before. His front number plate was making a nice job of levelling the snow in the middle of the road. At least an inch of snow in his tyre tracks now, perhaps an hour later. Still snowing heavily too. Reckon we have had about a foot over the last three days.

 

Got asked to help some elderly (late 80's and 90's) neighbours whos heating had gone off.

What has that got to do with the weather? Their boiler flue had become blocked with snow and pilot light had gone out.

Got it going again and saved them a fortune in callout charges.

 

Gales died down but rain this afternoon, max 4c.

 

Its been snowing on and off for the past few days, was forecast to snow heavy today but it seems to of moved further south so only had a flutter, probably only got 1 -2 inch of snow.

Just watched 5 day forecast on Countryfile very cold next few days and warming up on Wednesday, forecast -10 and -12 overnight tonight and Monday. I wonder how well a couple of plants are going to do Lobelia Tupa and Agastache black adder, they have mulch of leaves and snow so hopefully they will survive .

 

Still snowing here, big flakes now.

 

No more snow today, just a lovely blue sky and lots of sunshine making everything look clean and sparkly, -3C/27F.

Had to chuckle when I laid eyes on Oswald the owl this morning, now a Snowy owl?

 

Morning all. Finally stopped snowing this morning. Drifts in places. Yesterday hubby cleared the drive way and the path all around the front garden. So people would know where the path was and don't walk on our garden.

 

Less than 1cm of snow

 

It's alright if you don't have to walk in it.
Walking the boys we have to go out 4 times a day.

 

Looks like a Smurf Owl.

Had much needed steady rain here in the night.

 

Light rain has stopped so it is just cold and windy.
