We had a little snow overnight - more a dusting than a fall. The temperature has risen to a balmy 0.2ºC and is predicted to reach a scalding 5 tomorrow!

We had a good fall of snow last night but as John says the temp has risen a little and there is a slight sign of a thaw.  The wind is still ferocious though.  My garden has taken an awful battering with one of my evergreen trees and my bamboo stripped bare on the side that the wind was blowing.  There are a lot of trees down around us as well.  The forecast here is for rain so I am hoping that the snow will clear a bit and I might be able to get up to the plot to check for damage.

Our snow finally finished yesterday evening and the wind died away.  It wasn't much fun trudging home from work late last night, but better than the night before with snow blowing up, down and sideways, including into my face >:(

Today the temperature is up and a slow thaw is going on.  The local mob of starlings are having baths in the dodgy guttering on the house next door and making a right old racket.  There are other birds singing, which is lovely to hear after a few days of silence.

The cat is snoring under the duvet again  ::)

Same here - it got warmer through the day, the snow all but melted and we have had rain this evening, which did for the remnants of snow in the garden.

It's quite warm out there - thermometer reading 8 but I think it had some sunlight so maybe really 5 (it's in the shade most of the time, which is best for air temp readings)
Much of the snow has gone already, just the thick drifts taking their time
I'll start the post storm clearing up later, get the patio table back from the blackcurrants and so forth.

Bright & calm. Not as cold as the last few days. Snow starting to melt.
The siren song of the broad bean seeds are calling me to plant them....

Hard to tell what the weather's doing because it's so misty.  8)

Temperaure now PLUS 1.3C so a slow thaw taking place (snow thinking about sliding off the greenhouse roof but not in any great hurry by the looks of it.)
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

Yesterday was foggy all day long, so it was a great surprise to see a glimpse of sunshine early this morning.

So surprising in fact, that instead of having my usual mug of tea first thing, followed by a mug of coffee, I made them both together...

...in the same mug.  :blush:

Tasted disgusting!  :lol:

A balmy 6C here now, snow not quite all gone, but getting there.  :)

Snow and Wind gone but overcast and damp.  Thankfully it is a lot warmer at around +6.

It's actually sunny outside this morning, was starting to forget what that looked and felt like.

Dare I tempt fate and declare spring has arrived  :ohmy:
