      @Jiffy Yes they always drive like that down our Lane as the road has been made with twists in it to slow the car drivers down in case there are children crossing the road.Other parts of the village have been made the same way but believe it or not the car drivers all treat my road like a race track.I think if car drivers were to get nearer the curb then they might not get round the corner properly:snorky:

          No snow initially forecast here, then a few minutes before it started snowing lightly this morning the BBC forecast sudenly changed to an hour of heavy snow followed by an hour of light snow
          .
          But all we actually got in total was 10 minutes of light snow.

            Snow showers have continued today and it's been bitterly cold, in fact it feels colder than the -1C/30F we've had all day. Temperatures should start to rise from Sunday when a dryer spell starts to move in for the coming week.....I hope!

              I woke up this morning to see about an inch of snow in the garden and on my car, fairly cloudy skies, a stiff breeze and a temperature of 34f . The car has a full weather cover on it so the frozen icy snow slipped onto the driveway and stayed there all day without thawing. By mid afternoon the skies had cleared and the temperature had risen to 40f with a stiff breeze making it seem a lot colder. Because of the clear skies I powered up the Observatory but, guess what:dunno:, the skies had clouded over by 8.30pm so I guess that is that.:gaah: Right now the temperature has dropped to 34f with a pressure reading of 998hpa.:coffee::snorky:

                          31F, no breeze and the sun is out. I'll have to wait a while before I try a bit of gardening.

                            BBC forecast was 2 hours of light snow this morning, but there wasn't any here, however there appeared to be a few light snow showers over the hills about 10 miles away

                              IMG_20170114_094657.jpg woke up to a bit of snow this morning. Sun out now but I suspect more snow will arrive later.

                                Max of 4C today, dull and miserable with the odd spot of rain until around 2 pm when the sun came out and the sky cleared, just in time to give us another frost tonight.
