Still just below zero here, with a 'feels like' of -9.2C in the strong breeze.  :ohmy:

Sunshine and snow showers - we're still in an amber warning zone for snow, and I can see the showers racing across Europe towards this area on the rain radar. Whether they actually amount to anything remains to be seen...
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

Lovely sunny day but .. occasional flurries of fat snowflakes with a very strong easterly wind.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

We're getting light snow showers now - temperature's fallen to just over freezing and down to 8 in the polytunnel when I gave in and headed back for hot drink. Trimming leeks in the snow isn't much fun.. should have done them earlier.
It's just brightened up again - really lovely blue sky with fluffy clouds scudding across :)

Spoke too soon - just before dark it came back with a vengeance. Poor little lambs all huddled up with their mums.

We have had showers of snow all day that have come to nothing, but in the last hour or so the flakes have got larger and its starting to stick in the gardens at least.

My house guest is unimpressed and has taken refuge under the duvet. He does have comfort down to a fine art.  Get off the sofa to go and do something, he nicks your warm spot and is out cold by the time you are back  ::)  :lol:

Cold and worse with the wind. Emergency brandy procured for late night consideration.

We have had a fair bit of snow overnight.  Not as deep as a couple of weeks ago, but a decent covering.  It is wet and slushy underneath though.  Last time it was dry powdery stuff.

Even we've got it again.  Woke up to about two inches, nobody has driven down our road yet and it looks lovely.

Bit hard to tell the level depth of snow since yesterday because it's been blowing about so much - in places it's a foot deep on my street and in my garden.

Currently -2.9C with a 'high' of -1C forecast today, so neither it nor I will be shifting much today!

Tomorrow forecast to be much milder - hope so, it's all very pretty, but...

It's hovering around -1C now (same overnight) The sky looks full of snow, but none falling yet and the wind has dropped. It's that calm before the storm feeling, even the birds have been quiet this morning  :unsure:
If it does start again it looks as if we'll get a good covering, to add to yesterday's sprinkling.

I’m away in N.Ireland & it’s blowing like there’s no tomorrow, at least it’s stopped raining, it rained for 2 1/2 days solid- Wednesday,Thursday /Friday . Light sprinkle of snow but it’s all blown away,goodness knows who ended up with it. Can hardly stand up outside.
