    You can keep the cold and snow but I sure would appreciate the rain ... or the flora and terra and dams would. :smile:

      The snow cleared gradually this afternoon with gentle sleet falling. It has been snowing again for the last hour and my car is covered in it. I have to go out soon! :rolleyespink:

        All day it's been snowing but now it's settling, but it's like a wet snow.

          Our day started of cold & windy with lots of cloud. The sun bravely tried to get through the around 8am but met with little success! No snow overnight but it was damp first thing this morning. Not as cold as forecast either in fact we had positive numbers, if only 2C! But this was better than the negative -2C forecast!

          I wasn't able to do anything either indoors or on the balcony today in part because of the snow & very low temps with a very cold NE wind &, mostly, because we weren't at home for a few hours during the morning. We had to go to another town 30 minutes away by car so that I could have microsuction done on my ears to remove a lot of wax that had been building up for a long time. They no longer remove wax with warm water at our surgery. (I've had it done several times before.) Seems ridiculous to have to travel nearly 30 miles to have microsuction performed especially as where my wife has had it done a couple of times is only half an hour away by bus!

            -6C/21F early this morning. A frosty start that was soon burnt off as it's been a beautiful, sunny but cold day. 4C/39F

                I cleared the snow off the car last night in order to go out, cleared it again for coming home and now it is covered in white again. It must have warmed up now as, although the car and the lawns and flower beds are white the patio is just wet.

                Hopefully the roads will be OK later on when I have to go out again. :fingers crossed:

                      The snow has almost all gone and the patio is almost dry. According to the forecast we have 100% chance of it raining right now! :th scifD36: :heehee:

                                There is still laying on the garden and fields but the roads are now clear. It's damp grey and 2c heading to 11c.

                                It's just started raining as I type.
