Had to defrost the car this morning  :ohmy: the joys of a 6am start but it's been bright and breezy the rest of the day.

The rain has been persisting down since last night, rivers are dangerously high and I really feel for those poor folk living in their flood plains. They will be thinking December 2015, Storm Desmond revisited

It's been a windy but bright day here and also very mild for the time of year 15C at lunchtime. Blowing a hoolie now though and forecast to carry on all night!

Good luck to the North which is forecast to be a lot worse than us.

I think you're getting it worse than we are Alan - and it's pouring down in Snowdonia. 2 miserable hens sheltering under the coop and 3 silly ones without the sense to get in from the rain looking like drowned rats! The cats are avoiding the great outdoors for some reason.

We've had 84mm which is over 3" in real money since it started! Correction - Now reading 104mm on my gauge!

After Wednesday's 4 inches of rain the land was sodden. The hill behind us drained down, overwhelmed the land drain and soakaway and poured out of the base of the retaining wall. So we had a stream running down the side of the house, over a gulley that was overwhelmed and then across the front patio until it found another drain.
This morning it's mainly blue skies with clouds and crisp winter sun About 3º C and beautiful.

Similar here. About 100 mm of rain in last 48 hours. Not measured it but a wheelbarrow is full to overflowing but we have a gloriously frosty morning today with sun rapidly thawing it all out.  Our field is just like a marsh and there is a thin coat of ice on the pond

It was bitter here all day. I don't think it got over 4 and wind was cutting. Some hail to boot.

Another freezing night, bright white with frost this morning. I haven't ventured out yet to see the minimum temp Brr! (neither has the cat  ::) )
Will update later..

It was -1.7C with quite a thick layer of ice in the water butt.

Crisp and sparkly white with frost here, but blue sky and sunshine.  I have ventured out to let the chickens out and it doesn't seem as cold as yesterday morning.

Drizzle, 5ºC but a biting wind still - great for an SAS survival course!
