      These is a slight frost on the roof here, my gauge says a low of 2c overnight in the greenhouse so maybe 1c outside.

      Clear skies.

      Took a photo of the aurora last night after seeing all the images on the local Facebook page, it's disappointing to realise that the colour is not visible to the naked eye, it's just a slight static glow in reality not a bit like the dancing colours I remember when living in Yorkshire.

          The sun is coming through and it’s a crisp morning with an almost frost on the grass. I had moved my pelargoniums but forgot to bring my Jade indoors (should be ok as by the back door).

          A few dry days ahead now.

            Cold and foggy, 9C. It'll brighten up later, though, back to 21C and sunny spells. Weather will be coming from S/SE for the next few days, so dry and sunny :)

                        The storm went past us causing flooding in Spain. At 11 o'clock I went out to move the Adenium pots into The Baffa (outdoor Lounge/Winter Garden) and this was how it looked ...

                          The sun has risen and there are only a few wisps of clouds. It is 39f 3c and the guessers told me it is going up to 22c 76f. A great afternoon ahead so I'll get my errands done first thing!

                              Beautiful day today which we spent in Bristol. Yesterday, the forecast for tomorrow was sunshine. By early today the forecast for tomorrow was mostly rain. This evening, the forecast for tomorrow is rain early on and then mainly sunny for the rest of the day.
                              In the morning I'm just going to open the curtains and see what the weather is actually doing.

                                Woke up to a frost on the roof and lawn. The tops of the dahlias were blackened and the begonias had soggy flowers. By the house the plants were OK.

                                Lovely sunny day to get tidying up the garden.

                                Not so cold tonight and the moon is out.

                                Rain first thing tomorrow, but brightening up midday.
